Wichenford is a village and civil parish (with Kenswick) in the Malvern Hills District in the county of Worcestershire, England.

[2] During the Anglo-Saxon period, Wichenford was gifted by Offa of Mercia (The Midland King) to the Church of Worcester in the later part of the 8th century.

[5] It is said that around the year 1400, this Margaret Washbourne stabbed a French prisoner to death in Wichenford Court or ordered his execution,[6] following a battle fought a few miles north of Wichenford on Woodbury Hill between forces loyal to Henry IV of England and Owain Glyndŵr from Wales who was supported by a contingent of French troops.

[8] In 1651, John Washbourne of Wichenford arrived at Pitchcroft in Worcester with "forty horse" to support Charles II of England.

[10][11] Wichenford Court, a partly moated manor house, has a timber-framed 17th-century dovecote, with 557 nesting boxes,[12] now in the care of the National Trust.

[14] On the evening of 7 February 1961, BAC Jet Provost 'XF893', from RAF Tern Hill in Shropshire, hit a tree, and skidded across the road to Martley.

[15][16][17][18] In August 1960 he had been banned from driving, for one month, by Market Drayton Magistrates, for taking a bend at 50mph, hitting a hedge, and somersaulting.

[20] Wichenford School, now closed, was founded by the landowner Skynner G. Woodroffe in 1847 and a new building erected in 1848 was augmented around the year 1875.

[24] In 1973, the parish council erected a bus shelter near Castle Hill and installed the first street lighting in the village which was at Queen's Estate.
