Wythall is a large village and civil parish in the Bromsgrove District, in the northeastern corner of the county of Worcestershire, England.

Its original purpose was the education of the children of officers of the RAF station (see below), and in the years post-World War II was attended by the young Bruce Chatwin whose parents were living on a smallholding at Umberslade some 3 miles away.

From 1939 to 1959 Wythall was home to a Royal Air Force station, initially housing a barrage balloon facility, and latterly, 1952–57, a Joint Services School of Applied Linguistics, training men from the RN and RAF in Russian military terminology and the use of radios for Signals Intelligence purposes; additionally, Chinese, Czech, German and Polish were taught to small numbers of RAF men.

Part of the site is now occupied by the Transport Museum, Chapel Lane, which has a collection of historic buses and battery electric vehicles.

A sawmill, currently named Davies Timber Ltd., has been in operation for over 100 years and was steam powered at some point in its history, [citation needed] with maps from 1838 also showing a brickyard opposite the site.
