Stourport on Severn Basins

Stourport Basins

Stourport-on-Severn is a long way from the sea, but has the atmosphere of a true maritime holiday resort. It was once a busy inland port, which grew up around the point where the Staffordshire & Worcestershire Canal joined the River Severn.

Today the restored canal basins are a great place to discover the history of Stourport and the River Severn.
