Colwall is a civil parish in Herefordshire, England, situated on the border with Worcestershire, nestling on the western side of the Malvern Hills at the heart of the AONB.
A feature of Colwall is the view of the Iron Age British Camp (Herefordshire Beacon), which largely falls within the southeast corner of the parish.
The original tunnel was closed in the 1920s when it was in danger of collapse, but served the nation during the Second World War when used as a torpedo store; it is now a roost for a colony of lesser horseshoe bats.
South of the village is the Grade II listed Barton Court, built circa 1785 for Henry Lambert.
'Colwall Youth Project' was founded by Colwall Community Church and now receives funding from National Lottery, BBC Children in Need and the Everson Trust.
[16] In 1987 Malvern gained recognition as a Natural Mineral Water, a mark of purity and quality.
It was mentioned in 1622 in Bannister's Breviary of the Eyes:[18] A little more I'll of their curing tell.How they helped sore eyes with a new found well.Great speech of Malvern Hills was late reportedUnto which spring people in troops resorted...."The Malvern water says Dr John Wall is famous for containing just nothing at all"...!
The factory was acquired by Coca-Cola & Schweppes Beverages[20] and latterly employed 25 people who bottled 12 million litres annually.
On 21 October 2010, Coca-Cola announced that Malvern Water would cease production and the Colwall plant would be sold off to property developers.
The parishes of Bosbury, Coddington, Colwall, and Mathon together form the ward of Hope End, which returns one elected councillor to Herefordshire Council.
