The centre of the town is based around Load Street, a broad street which is lined mostly with red-brick Georgian houses and runs to the Church of Saint Anne, built in the middle of the 18th century. You will see a lot of Georgian buildings in Bewdley, many well preserved or renovated and giving a great charm to the town centre. There is also a small museum celebrating local history in a building called the Shambles (it was previously the butcher's market).
The town along the river bank is also popular, with various leisure facilities, cafes etc. and more attractive Georgian properties. The two sides of the river are joined by the 18th century Bewdley bridge. Take a stroll along the river banks a little way to enjoy the scenery and the views of the bridge and town.
