Map of the UK

The village and civil parish of Minsterworth sits on the west bank of the River Severn within the borough of Tewkesbury in Gloucestershire, England. Its low-lying marshes, known locally as Minsterworth Ham, form a distinctive floodplain that attracts wintering waders and wildfowl and offers good vantage points for watching the dramatic Severn Bore.

Historically connected to river-based livelihoods and agriculture, the village still centres on its medieval parish church, St Peter's Church, and a small but active community with village facilities and events. Today many residents commute to nearby Gloucester and Tewkesbury, while birdwatching, fishing and riverside walks remain popular recreational draws.
