No, and we don't have a Morgan Car Company.
We have the Malvern Vale Hotel on Malvern Road in the area once known as the Malvern Hills.
What is the origin of the name Malvern?
In 1853, English barrister Charles Bruce Graeme Skinner purchased Crown allotment 25, 84 acres of land west of Glenferrie Road. He subdivided the land, which he named the Malvern Hill Estate, after the Malvern Hills in England where his forebears had lived. The name Malvern was first used when Skinner named his new hotel the Malvern Hill Hotel. Skinner also planned a village to be named Ledbury close to the hotel.
