Bewdley to Bridgenorth
	Bewdley, standing on the banks of the river Severn, west of Kidderminster, has a fine town centre made up of Tudor, Jacobean & Georgian buildings & an impressive bridge across the river, built by Thomas Telford. From here, you take a winding route around the back lanes of Shropshire as you head for Bridgnorth, sitting high & resplendant on its sandstone cliff overlooking that same river Severn.

On the route you visit Kinlet & Highley, both coal mining towns until the 1960's but they go back much further than the industrial 19th & 20th centuries. Highley is mentioned in the Domesday book as belonging to the Countess Godiva.

The last few questions of this route are answered on foot in Bridgnorth. The town is split into High & Low Town. However, all the answers are found in 'High Town'. While you are there its worth looking out for the caves, the cliff railway, the Severn Valley steam railway & the castle. Charles I, when visiting the town in 1642, commented that the view was the finest in his domain.
