Tewkesbury
Tewkesbury, situated in Gloucestershire, is a town positioned at the confluence of the River Severn and the River Avon, along with the minor tributaries of Swilgate and Carrant Brook. It lends its name to the Borough of Tewkesbury, where it stands as the second largest settlement. The origin of the name Tewkesbury can be traced back to Theoc, a Saxon individual who established a hermitage there in the 7th century. In Old English, it was referred to as Theocsbury.

Visitor Moorings
Usually marked by blue posts, 48 hours maximum.
At busy times it may be necessary for boats to make the best use of the moorings available. Please treat other river users with courtesy and, where necessary, moor close up to the next boat or even breast up alongside. This is particularly important if rising river levels require boats to stop and moor. Mooring in lock landing stages and in lock approach channels is permitted only when locking and at no other time.
