History
The village name 'Shenley' is an Old English language word meaning 'bright clearing'.<ref>Template:Cite web</ref> In the Domesday Book of 1086 the area was collectively known as Senelai.<ref name="VCH">Template:Cite book</ref>
The distinction between the Brook End and the Church End happened in the 12th century when a new manor house was constructed in Shenley Brook End by the Mansell family. However, by 1426 the two manors were owned by the same person and the distinction between the two places was in name only.<ref name="VCH" />
