Assarts and Upper Welland
Viewed from the south end of Pinnacle Hill.
The now built up area nearest the hills is locally known as Assarts whilst the more distant built up area to the right hand side is Upper Welland.
The latter was known as Lower Assart in the pre inclosure years of the 1840s.
Assarting was the medieval practice of clearing the hunting forest of trees to create farm land under licence.
In 1196 the Bishop of Worcester was granted a licence to extend his assart at Welland Mill.
The creation of these two areas may date from as far back as then.

Horse Pasture, Upper Welland
Taken from Assarts Lane, looking up towards Black Hill (scarred by its disused quarry) and Pinnacle Hill. this land was once in the rural parish of Little Malvern (the hedge on the right being the boundary), but was transferred to Malvern Wells at the end of the 19th century to allow gas to be laid down the road (to the left of the picture) to Upper Welland.
