Cuthbert Wilfrid Francis Noyce (31 December 1917 – 24 July 1962) (usually known as Wilfrid Noyce (often misspelt as 'Wilfred'),〔E.g. Malcolm Slesser, ''With Friends in High Places: An Anatomy of Those Who Take to the Hills'', Mainstream Publishing, 2004; Noyce is spelt as 'Wilfred Noyce' throughout.〕 some sources give third forename as Frank) was an English mountaineer and author.

Noyce was born in 1917 in Simla, the British hill station in India. The eldest son of Sir Frank Noyce of the Indian Civil Service and his wife, Enid Isabel, a daughter of W. M. Kirkus of Liverpool, Noyce was educated at Charterhouse, where he became head boy, and King's College, Cambridge, taking a first in Modern Languages.〔(Noyce biography ) at andrejkoymasky.com.

In the Second World War he was initially a conscientious objector, joining the Friends Ambulance Unit. However, he later chose to serve as a private in the Welsh Guards, before being commissioned as a second lieutenant in the King's Royal Rifle Corps on 19 July 1941.〔 He later attained the rank of captain in the Intelligence Corps; John Hunt wrote that "...during a part of the war () was employed in training air crews (mountain techniques ) in Kashmir. For a brief period he assisted me in running a similar course for soldiers".〔〔John Hunt, ''The Ascent of Everest'', Hodder and Stoughton, 1953, p. 29.〕 He was also employed as a code-breaker, managing to break an important Japanese code.〔
After the war, Noyce became a schoolmaster. From 1946 until 1950 he taught modern languages at Malvern College. Then, following in the footsteps of George Mallory, he returned as a master to his own old school, Charterhouse, where he remained for ten years. On 12 August 1950, between Malvern and Charterhouse, he married Rosemary Campbell Davies, and they had two sons, Michael and Jeremy.〔〔
