Minsterworth is a small riverside village in the borough of Tewkesbury, Gloucestershire, England, set on the west bank of the River Severn. It sits beside the low-lying grazing meadows known as Minsterworth Ham, an important floodplain that attracts wading birds and offers impressive views of the Estuary and the famous Severn Bore; the landscape is a mix of agricultural land and wildlife-rich wetlands that change with the tides and seasons.
The settlement has medieval roots centred on its parish church and a long tradition of farming and river-related activities, and today combines a quiet local community with visitors who come for birdwatching, walking and the tidal spectacle. Many residents commute to nearby towns while the village retains a strong rural character and interest in conserving its distinctive riverside environment.
