Malvern Wells
Malvern Wells is a fairly modern village formed from parts of the parishes of
Great Malvern,
Hanley Castle, and
Welland, in
Worcestershire,
England. The civil parish of Malvern Wells was formed in 1894 and was once known as South Malvern. It lies on the eastern slopes of the
Malvern Hills south of Great Malvern and takes its name from the spring water issuing from the hills, principally from the Holy Well and the Eye Well. Its northern end also includes The Wyche, the historic crossing from the
Herefordshire side of the Malvern Hills to the Worcestershire side. The actual cutting is at a height of 856 feet.
