Over, Tewkesbury

Over is a village in Gloucestershire, England, 2 mi (3.2 km) west of Gloucester.

It lies on the A40 road in the parish of Highnam, on the west bank of the River Severn.

There is some debate on the correct pronunciation of the name, with some preferring /ɒvɝ/ (oo-vurr) and others stating that it should be pronounced as /ʊ̈vɝ/ (o-vurr).

It was rebuilt several times, and the present bridge was built by Thomas Telford between 1826 and 1829.

The Herefordshire and Gloucestershire Canal, opened in 1795 and closed in 1881, joined the Severn between the village and the confluence of the Leadon.
