[3] Various pits, ditches and postholes have been found in sites throughout the village, indicating the presence of roundhouses and a permanent Iron Age settlement.

[4] Archaeologists have also found various significant items from the Iron Age, such as broken vessels and a salt container from the Malvern Hills and Droitwich Spa.

The presence of pottery from Malvern suggests that Wychbold had strong trade links outside of its immediate area, even in the Iron Age.

Romans are believed to have settled in the Wychbold area between the 1st and 4th century, shown by the presence of Severn Valley and samian pottery.

[6] The earliest known record of Wychbold is in a charter of 692 (where it is known as Uuicbold), describing how Æthelred of Mercia "granted ten hides of land there to his thegn Oslaf".

[10] During the 11th century, possession of Wychbold passed from Earl Godwine to Osbern fitzRichard, who held it at the time of the Domesday Book.

[11] In 1204, William de Cantilupe, Sheriff of Worcestershire and steward to King John, came into possession of properties within the village.

[13] Excavation near the Grade II listed house revealed pottery dating to the 13th or 14th century and evidence of farming in the area at the time.

[14] There also once stood a manor house called Wychbold Hall within the village, the residence of the Amphlett family,[15] described as being "modern" in 1911.

[19] Wychbold is primarily governed by Dodderhill Parish Council, which performs maintenance on the village's public areas.

[24] In recent years, Wychbold has seen the development of multiple housing estates, such as the Elmbridge Gardens site built in 2014.

The Grade II* listed church was built between 1888 and 1889, funded by the Amphlett family and John Corbett, an industrialist and the local Member of Parliament.

[46] In August 2018, a new play area opened opposite Wychbold Village Hall, containing new swings, climbing frames and slides.

The Wychbold Sports and Social Club reopened in July 2017, with the aim to "bring the community together amidst several new housing developments" within the village.
