  • Cycling and Riding in Severn Valley Country Park Cycling in Severn
    Cycling and Riding in Severn Valley Country Park Cycling in Severn Valley Country Park The Mercian Way The Mercian Way is part of route 45 of the National Cycle Network and passes straight through the middle of the park. Running from Bewdley to Bridgnorth and beyond, route 45 covers rural lane and off road tracks to take visitors into a world of unspoilt riverside, woods and meadows. Riding through the park you have the unique opportunity to cycle in parallel to the vintage steam trains of the Severn Valley Railway. It is the perfect safe, family-friendly, traffic free environment. Click here for more information about the Mercian Way. The Shropshire Cycleway East: Severn takes cyclists on a journey from Telford through Ironbridge, Bridgnorth, the country park and on towards Cleobury Mortimer. It takes you through the beautiful landscape of the Severn Valley and passes by the country park. The full Shropshire Cycleway route is a 185 mile route around Shropshire’s border. Click here for more information about the Shropshire Cycleway. There is a bike rack located outside the visitor centre, to enable cyclists to enjoy a well deserved break in our teashop. Riding in Severn Valley Country Park The Jack Mytton Way comprises of over 100 miles of rural bridleways and quiet country lanes. The trail passes near to the park at Highley and riders can divert from their trek to enjoy some time with us. Through the park there is a public bridleway and riders are invited to use our other surfaced paths. In 2013, a project undertaken by our volunteers to transform a section of the park into a wild flower meadow included the addition of a new bridleway from our car parking area.

Highley is a long settlement which is spread over a mile on the B4555 along the River Severn to the west. Highley began as a rural farming community, including an entry in the Domesday Book as Hughli , named after the lord of the manor. Later the area became a significant area for stone quarrying, which provided some of the stone for Worcester Cathedral. Coal mining began in the area in the Middle Ages but the formation of the Highley Mining Company in 1874 saw the expansion of the village. The mine closed in 1969 and is now home to the Severn Valley Country Park.

  • Families & Ferries at Potter's Loade
    Lives in the Landscape Families & Ferries at Potter’s Loade For hundreds of years in rural areas, ferries were invaluable for transporting people, goods, and even livestock between riverbanks. By the 1920’s there were 28 ferries shown on Ordnance Survey maps across the length of the River Severn—including the Potter’s Loade ferry. Records show that a ferry at Potter’s Loade was mentioned as early as 1690 when ‘….the passage over the river…with the boate there belonging at Potters Load’ was included in the lease to nearby Hall Close Farm. It is also mentioned in an advert in the Shrewsbury Chronicle on 16th August 1777 where Rhea Hall in Highley was to be auctioned and the lot included ‘right of free passage over the River Severn at Potter’s Load…..’ Right: Photograph of ‘Lease of possession of the scite of the manor at Alveley’ 4 April,1690 There are a number of mentions of the ferry (and cottage) at Potter’s Loade in the newspaper as over the years it was advertised as ‘TO LET’. These articles have been researched on the British Newspapers Archive website. On 18 September 1851 in Worcester Journal a house, garden, new boat and ferry over the Severn at Potter’s Loade is advertised with applications to J. Bacon. For 3 weeks, in 1864 (20 February- 5 March), a house, garden with ferry over the Severn are advertised with enquires to Mr Fellows. Finally, in 1901 (16th February) there is an advert in the Wellington Journal for a boatman to take charge of Potter’s Loade ferry with applications to H.E.
