MSPCA trough - Well Dressing 2011 - Togetherness

The trough, erected at the beginning of the 20th century by the Malvern Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals as a memorial to the horses who suffered in the Boer War, has been decorated by a team led by Stephanie Underwood-Webb. Begun as a solo venture it soon became a community project and has been rewarded with a Gold Award. "You aren't a proper couple until you understand everything the other hasn't said." The trough used to be located on the large oddly shaped traffic island in Barnards Green shopping area, but has been at this position, by the Guarlford straight for many decades. Worcestershire Beacon is in the distance. SO7945 : MSPCA trough - Well Dressing 2011 - Togetherness

Malvern cemetery

Set up by the local council after the Church of England churchyard was nearly full. As Malvern grew rapidly in the Victorian times, new churches were built without graveyards. Another municipal cemetery was created in Malvern Wells.

The 500th council house in post-war Malvern

There was a huge shortage of housing in the post war period so new building programmes started in March 1946. The first council house was completed in November 1946 and the hundredth in January 1948. The 500th house (27, Orford Way - the cream coloured one on the right) was completed in April 1951 and a special ceremony took place outside on Thursday April 26th. After unlocking the door Mr James Wilkins, Chairman of the Council, handed the key over to the new occupier, Mr S. Wall. There was tea and a cake was cut - a replica of the house. Another 110 houses were under construction at that time. The private sector were also building houses for sale and the Ministry of Supply were constructing houses for scientists who worked at the Radar Research Establishment as it was then called making a total of 870 new houses since the war.

Clare Road, Sherrards Green, Malvern

Part of the massive post-war boom in council house construction. 500 council houses were completed in 5 years. From the alterations that have taken place it would appear that many of these have been sold off. Worcestershire Beacon in the background.
