Newnham Farm, River Teme
Newnham Farm is a cracking, roughly two-mile stretch of the middle/lower River Teme near Newnham Bridge. It’s a proper rural, tree-lined beat, but the steep banks and limited access make it a challenging one.

The lowdown
- Fishing is from the left bank only, with the river sitting deep below the surrounding Worcestershire countryside.
- The channel is deeply set for much of the beat, in places around 20 feet below the surrounding land. So expect a bit of a walk down to the water.
- Access is limited in places, although the owner is working on improvements. It’s not a great shout for anyone with limited mobility.
- Where wading is possible, the bed is a mix of gravel and bedrock. Wading is generally relatively easy in suitable spots, but watch for steep drop-offs.
- This is described as a mixed fishery, with an all-species, in-season permit. Every fish must be released.
- Outside the coarse-fishing season, it’s fly fishing only. The coarse season runs from 16 June to 14 March.
- The trout season is listed as 18 March to 7 October, so check the dates carefully before planning a trip.
- The beat runs a wash-off policy, and only two tickets are available per day. That should keep things pleasantly quiet on the bank.
- No night fishing or overnight camping is allowed. Dogs are welcome, but they need to stay under control.
- The official page currently shows a temporary fishery-closed notice, so check the current position before setting off. The supplied postcode is WR15 8JF.
Methods: Fly fishing is required outside the coarse-fishing season. In-season fishing is covered by the all-species permit, with all fish released.
