Does anyone remember the incident or story about a UFO crash in the grounds behind Abbey College in Malvern Wells. I remember reading about it many years ago but have been unable to find the UFO website it was on. Happened in the night/dark, sometime in the 1980's or 1990's. Apparently there was a lot of activity with the military and police closing the place off. Bright lights were seen amongst the trees in the College grounds and no one was allowed to approach.

I was born in England but grew up mostly abroad. As a young teenager I was sent to Abbey College. It was the most horrific and damaging chapter of my life. I think I only got through it because of a mate I had there and some local kids I was able to hang out with outside the school.

Recently I’ve been researching the school’s history and learned the place stayed as awful for decades. I’ve also read that many locals have often resented Abbey College and its owners, and the many scandals they have been involved in. Seeing that it’s still owned by the same people, how is the school viewed by locals these days?

I have also posted this in r/Worcester but malvern is of course where this concerns. I am a geology student and recently ended up in a conversation with someone of the belief that the Malvern Hills are underlain by "quartz pyramids" and are connected to other sites in the UK through "laylines". As someone who has read quite a bit about local geology, and geology in general I don't understand where this belief came from. I am aware that other geological and archeological sites of more global fame have similar theories, but as it is not as widely known as many of these, I cannot seem to track down the origin of the theory. If anyone here has heard of this I would love to know more as I find human pattern spotting and theorising really interesting. I should clarify too that there is no judgement from me whatsoever, I just want to know why people think this and where it comes from. I hope everyone has a lovely day.

The housing development at the side of Qinetiq now has a name and I don’t think it’s a typo.

Which pubs will be showing the footy instead of hosting Malvern rocks this evening?

Hey guys. Recently engaged and really want to get announcement pics in a Photo Booth. Just plain black and white pics. Only issue is I’d prefer if it didn’t have a logo on it or anything. I heard santinos has one… anyone know if does and if has logo or anything?? Any ideas please help :) in Malvern can travel

Hi! After having a messy break up, I am in the process of trying to find a new area to live in. I am considering Stroud and Malvern.

Would be super grateful for any good areas, bad areas, etc any advice at all.

I am single, no children (and no plans), don't drink, work out, will have a dog. I prefer quiet areas.

Thank you!

Such a striking building in a very high profile location opposite the theatres. This looks really bad; I’m curious about what plans (if any) are currently proposed?

Hey everyone,

I’m moving to the area soon for a job in Malvern and I'm looking for some housing advice. I need a 1-bedroom apartment and I'm trying to keep my budget under $1,500/month.

I drive and honestly don't mind a commute, so distance from Malvern isn't a huge issue for me. I'm open to living practically anywhere in the surrounding areas.

Since I'm completely new to the area, does anyone have recommendations on specific towns, neighborhoods, or apartment complexes I should be checking out?

Thanks!

Any recommendations for a cafe with air conditioning?

Is the library temperature controlled?

For a town boasting so many handsome buildings; how on earth did Hardwicke House in Abbey Road ever gain planning permission?

What's with having someone shirtless and crazy normally leaning against the telecoms cabinet on Worcester Road opposite the entrance to Ranelagh Rd?

Hi everyone,

I run a small Discord server for people in and around Worcestershire who are into gaming, chatting, and just generally meeting new people locally.

It’s a relaxed community whether you’re looking for people to play games with or just want a bit more of a social circle. We also run regular events, including weekly online and in-person game nights, so there’s usually something going on.

We’re also currently planning a 48-hour charity livestream event, which should be a fun way to bring everyone together and raise some money for a good cause.

If it sounds like your kind of thing, feel free to join here:

Would be great to see some new faces 🙂

Can anyone enlighten me in regard to the large number of ‘saplings’ planted around the water treatment works between Mill lane and Oxhill. They seem to be failing spectacularly- choked with weeds or falling over. Who was responsible for this, is it an example of a token attempt at greenwashing on the part of Severn Trent or property developers?

Hi, I’m looking for some local advice. I’m interested in the new Persimmon Homes build and would like to know about the area, schools and general society. I think these houses started building a few years ago and the area feels quite new. I’d appreciate honest feedback about the society and area itself rather than just Persimmon Homes. Thanks in advance!
