The Wormald Ice Piedmont (67°29′S 68°5′W) is an ice piedmont covering the eastern part of Wright Peninsula, Adelaide Island, Antarctica, between Rothera Point and Sighing Peak. It was surveyed by the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey (FIDS) in 1961–62, and by the British Antarctic Survey (BAS) from 1976.
It was named by the United Kingdom Antarctic Place-Names Committee (UK-APC) in 1977 after Steven Wormald, a prominent former BAS staff member.
