===Associated canals=== {{River Severn map}} The [[Staffordshire and Worcestershire Canal]], the [[Worcester and Birmingham Canal]], (both narrow beam) and the [[Herefordshire and Gloucestershire Canal]] join the Severn at Stourport, [[Worcester, England|Worcester]] and [[Gloucester]] respectively. The [[Droitwich Canal|Droitwich Barge Canal]], a broad beam canal, joins the Severn at [[Hawford]], near to the [[River Salwarpe]], and connects to the Droitwich Canal (narrow beam) in the name town, which then forms a link to the Worcester and Birmingham Canal. The two Droitwich canals re-opened in 2010 after major restoration. The [[Gloucester and Sharpness Canal]] connects the Severn at Gloucester to the Severn at [[Sharpness, Gloucestershire|Sharpness]], avoiding a stretch of the tidal river which is dangerous to navigate. The [[Stroudwater Navigation]] used to join the tidal Severn at [[Framilode]], but since the 1920s has connected to the Severn only via the Gloucester and Sharpness Canal. The [[Lydney Canal]] is a short canal which connects [[Lydney]] to the river. The section of the river between Tewkesbury and Worcester forms part of the [[Avon Ring]], a {{convert|109|mi|km|adj=on}} circular cruising route which includes 129 locks and covers parts of three other waterways.
