*************

Wyche, generally referred to locally as The Wyche, is a village and a suburb of the town of Malvern, Worcestershire, England, and part of the civil parish of Malvern Wells. It is situated approximately 1 mile (1.6 km) south of Great Malvern, the town's centre, on the B4218 road that runs from Malvern to Colwall. The western boundary of the village is marked by The Wyche Cutting, a pass through the Malvern Hills that was once part of an Iron Age salt route.

As the crest of the Malvern Hills (running north to south) defines part of the border between the two counties of Herefordshire and Worcestershire, The Wyche Cutting itself forms a narrow pass through the hills between the counties. Until the 1960s, this was the main A449 road, which is now re-routed further south to cope with larger vehicles.

The Wyche village comprises the two informal areas of Upper Wyche and Lower Wyche, mainly comprising residential properties. It is also the location of the Wyche Innovation Centre, that was the former Skot Transformers building. This is also the home of the Malvern Hills Geocentre,^[1] a visitor centre based entirely on iPads with an attached cafe.^[2][3]
