Stourport Yacht Club

The object of the S. Y. C is to encourage yachting and boating in all it’s branches, and to
provide headquarters for information about yachting and boating

The Clock Tower premises now known as Stourport Yacht Club is situated between Clock Basin and the original and largest of Brindley’s Basin’s Known as the upper Basin which opened in 1771 built high enough for protection from the river Servern’s flooding. Access from the river is via two wide-beam locks large enough to enable the “Severn Trows” which carried amongst other things roof tiles up the river to Bridgenorth, many stopping off at the “Mug House’s on the way.
