Where We Are
THE WYCHAVON DISTRICT covers some 260 square
miles of the eastern part of the county of Worcestershire. It
extends from an eastern border with Warwickshire and its western
boundary is formed by the River Severn and the city of Worcester.
In the south, Wychavon commences at the Cotswold boundary with
Gloucestershire and extends as far north as the towns of Bromsgrove
and Kidderminster.
With a population of 116,900 (mid 2005 estimate) Wychavon is a
combination of urban and rural communities and interests. Its three
main towns - Droitwich, Evesham and Pershore - and nearly 100
villages, are scattered across a pleasing countryside that is
watered by the winding River Avon; edged by the Severn and includes
such naturally beautiful features as the Cotswolds' northern edge
and the height of Bredon Hill.
One of the major benefits to businesses of being located in
Wychavon is its position at the heart of the UK’s transport
network. The superb transport infrastructure means that Wychavon is
accessible for customers, suppliers and the local workforce.
