Background
History
]] The name Upton derives from the Old English upptūn meaning "settlement higher up", in reference to its position upstream from Ripple. Until the later half of the 20th century, the bridge at Upton was the only one across the River Severn between Worcester and Tewkesbury; the present bridge was built in 1940.
