Lewis Topographical Dictionary of England 1845

Tenbury (St. Mary the Virgin), a market-town and parish, and the head of a union, in the Upper division of the hundred of Doddingtree, Hundred-House and W. divisions of the county of Worcester; containing, with the hamlets of Berrington, Sutton, and Tenbury-Foreign with Kyrewood, 1849 inhabitants, of which number 1177 are in the town, 22 miles (N. W. by W.) from Worcester, and 134 (N. W. by W.) from London.

This place, originally called Temebury, derives its name from the Teme, which is here a considerable river, separating Worcestershire from Salop, and crossed at the northern entrance into the town by a bridge of six arches. The town consists of two streets, intersecting nearly at right angles, and partially paved; the houses in general are indifferently built, but some improvements have been effected, and a company for lighting the town with gas was established in 1841. Races are held in June, on a good course about a mile south.

A mineral spring was discovered in July, 1839, by some workmen sinking a well on the premises of S. H. Godson, Esq., and appears likely to raise Tenbury to a high rank among British watering-places. The water, which sprang up suddenly from a bed of limestone lying under a massive stratum of old red sandstone, was found to be about 32 feet below the surface, and exhibited a bright sparkling appearance. Several analyses of its contents have been made, differing in some respects from each other, but all exhibiting chloride of sodium, and chloride of calcium (muriate of lime), as the principal ingredients. The proprietor has built a pump-room over the spring, which was opened on the 1st of June, 1840, and baths on the most improved principles have been erected, which have been visited by numerous families of respectability and distinction; a band attends on the promenade, and every attention is paid to the accommodation of visiters. Another well for mineral water has lately been sunk to the depth of 62 feet.

The surrounding country is rich and beautiful, and very productive of hops and apples; great quantities of cider and perry are made, forming a principal source of trade, and returning large profits to the farmers. From the years 1829 to 1835, the average number of acres of hops in cultivation was 330; the average quantity of hops grown is 63,115lb., and of duty paid £529. There are also a considerable malting trade and a tannery.

A canal, commenced in 1794, and originally intended to extend from Leominster to the Severn near Stourport, but not carried through the whole distance, passes within half a mile of the town.

The market granted by Henry III. in 1249 is on Tuesday ; the building for the corn-market is an ancient structure, but the butter-cross is more recent. Fairs are held on the Tuesday before the 25th of March, on April 22nd, May 1st, Sept. 26th, and Dec. 3rd; petty-sessions take place once in two months, and a court leet and court baron are held.

The parish comprises 5179a. 2r. 9p. The living is a vicarage, with Rochford annexed, valued in the king’s books at £21, and endowed with a portion of the rectorial tithes; net income, £607; patron and incumbent, the Rev. George Hall; impropriators of the remainder of the rectorial tithes, R. Bagnall, Esq., and others.

The church, erected in the 11th century, was rebuilt in 1777, the old structure having been swept away by a flood in November 1770; it is a spacious and neat edifice, and had formerly a chantry attached to it, which; was valued at the period of the suppression at £5. 0. 6. per annum. The church belonged to the monastery of Lyra, in Normandy, till the year 1414, when Henry V. transferred its rights and revenues to the monastery of Sheen, in Surrey, with which it was connected till the Dissolution. There is a place of worship for Baptists.

Worcestershire Delineated C. And J. Greenwood 1822

Tenbury – a small market town in the hundred of Doddingtree, upper division, 22 miles N.W. from Worcester, and 134 from London; containing with the Foreign 255 inhabited houses. It is situated in a pleasant country, on the bank of the river Teme, which divides this part of the county from Salop. The town is well paved, and kept very clean, but cannot boast of many good houses. A small river, which rises in Kyre Park, flows with a rapid course under a bridge at the S.W. end of the town, and falls into the Teme.

Tenbury, from its low situation, is very subject to floods. On the 17th November, 1770, the great flood which then took place threw down the side and middle aisles in the church, swept away the windows, injured several of the monuments, and destroyed the organ, which has since been replaced. There is no manufacture carried on in the town, but considerable business is done in hops and cider, of which large quantities are grown in the neighbourhood. The market is on Tuesday, and there are three fairs annually, viz. 26th April, 18th July, and 26th Sept. The living is a vicarage in the diocese of Hereford, and archdeaconry of Salop; Rev. Thomas Rocke, D.D. incumbent; instituted 1785; patroness, Mrs. Hill. Population, 1801, 1143 – 1811, 1562 – 1821, 1268.

Tenbury – Pigot’s Directory of Worcestershire 1842

Is a market town and parish in the upper division of the hundred of Doddingtree, 132 miles N.W. from London, 39 S. from Shrewsbury, 23 N. from Hereford, and 20 N.W. by W. from Worcester; situated in a fertile and picturesque part of the country, at the western verge of the county abutting upon Shropshire and Herefordshire, and on the southern bank of the Teme – from which river the town is said to derive a portion of its name, which originally was written Temebury. The river, which here separates the counties of Worcester and Salop, is crossed, at the northern entrance of the town, by a bridge of six arches. The surrounding district is rich, and very productive of hops and apples: during the season of the latter cider is made here in considerable quantities, and the trade in malt is of some consequence. Accommodation for travellers is afforded by good inns; the principal one is the ‘Swan’, an old and well established house. From a recent discovery of a powerful medicinal spring, and the establishment of baths here, this town is expected to become of importance as a watering place. Races are held annually, in the latter end of June, on a good course, about a mile south of the town. The Hon. and Rev. George Rushout Bowles, of Burford, is lord of the manor, and holds a court leet and court baron occasionally; and petty sessions are held once in two months. Tenbury is a polling station at the election of members to represent the western division of the county.
The places of worship are the parish church of Saint Mary, and a chapel for particular Baptists. The church, which was rebuilt in 1777 (the old building having been swept away by a flood in 1770), is a spacious and neat edifice: the benefice is a vicarage, with the perpetual curacy of Rochford annexed, in the patronage of the Rev. George Hall, who is the present incumbent. A national school, first established here in 1816, is supported by voluntary contributions. The market, granted by Henry III in 1249, is held on Tuesday; and the fairs on the first Tuesday in March, 22nd April, first Tuesday after Trinity Sunday, 18th July, 26th September and 9th December; and there is a statue meeting for hiring servants on the 1st May. The parish of Tenbury (including the hamlets of BERRINGTON, SUTTON, and TENBURY–FOREIGN,) contained, in 1831, 1768 inhabitants.

Tenbury Lewis Worcestershire Directory 1820

Tenbury, a market town, 22 miles from Worcester, 9 from Leominster, and 134 from London. It is situated on the bank of the river Team [sic] which divides it from Salop. According to the last census in 1811, it contained 185 houses and 905 inhabitants, exclusive of the Hamlet called the Foreign, containing 44 houses and 233 inhabitants. On the north side of the town is a neat stone Bridge consisting of six arches over the river Team, which divides the counties of Worcester and Salop. The river here is very subject to flood, as on the south side of the town a small brook called Kyre empties itself into the Team, and is often blocked up by it. The great flood, November 17th, 1770, threw down the south and middle aisles of the church, by which means the windows, organ, &c. were broken, and the monuments much injured. Here are annual horse races, respectably attended. The market is on Tuesday, and its fairs are 25th of April, 18th of July, and 26th of September.
