The funicular train in the market town was closed in December 2022, after a damaged retaining wall was found to pose a health and safety risk.

Repairs to the section of wall affecting the Cliff Railway, which is owned by the town council, were finalised in November.

The cost to fix the entire wall is set to be around £750,000.

Now the owner of the Cliff Railway, Malvern Tipping says the attraction is on track to be back up and running next month.
