== Viewpoints == There are a number of viewpoints from which the bore can be seen; viewers do not have to restrict themselves to these because most of the river banks and floodbanks are public footpaths. Crowds often assemble at popular viewing points and car parking may prove difficult. Related to the time of the high tide at Sharpness, the bore passes [[Newnham on Severn]] one hour before this, [[Framilode]] and [[Arlingham]], twenty-five minutes before, [[Epney]] twenty minutes before, Minsterworth at the high tide, Stonebench, on the east bank, fifteen minutes after the high tide and [[Over Bridge]] thirty-five minutes afterwards.<ref name=Rowbotham1967/> One of the main viewpoints is at Minsterworth at the Severn Bore Inn on the [[A48 road|A48]]. Another good place to see the spectacle is Over Bridge, but the view here is rather restricted by the adjacent railway bridge.<ref name=Locations >{{cite web |url=http://www.severn-bore.co.uk/locations.html |title=Locations |work=The Severn Bore |access-date=18 August 2016 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160821133241/http://www.severn-bore.co.uk/locations.html |archive-date=21 August 2016 |url-status=live }}</ref><ref>{{cite web |title=Locations |url=https://www.severn-bore.co.uk/locations.html |publisher=Severn Bore |access-date=16 July 2020 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20181126084049/https://www.severn-bore.co.uk/locations.html |archive-date=26 November 2018 |url-status=live }}</ref>
