The B4190 is a short B-road in north Worcestershire.
The road starts at Long Bank on the A456, at the western end of the Bewdley bypass and heads east into Bewdley along the pre-bypass A456, descending into the narrow streets of the town centre. On meeting the B4194 it TOTSOs right then almost immediately left, with the two carriageways passing either side of St Anne's church to reach the Market Place.
After crossing the River Severn there is a junction with the B4195 before the road goes under the Severn Valley Railway. The B4190 then continues along the full length of the pre-bypass A456 to reach the A-road once more. However, just before there is a left turn which marks the original western end of the road (westbound traffic is forced to turn left and so can only reach Bewdley via the roundabout on the bypass).
The B4190 leaves Bewdley along Habberley Road and Habberley is soon met; this is a suburb of Kidderminster. The road goes round the northern edge of the town, crossing the A442 at a roundabout in Franche, before it descends to Wolverley in the Stour Valley where it terminates at a roundabout on the B4189.
