About Shifnal
The town, originally known as Idsall, was most probably a Saxon settlement established by the end of the 7th century. The first part of the name is reckoned to be the personal name "Scuffa" rather than a place name. The ending "halch" means a large, shallow bowl describing the topography of the town's location. Unusually the name of the town has alternated through the centuries between Idsall and Shifnal. Idsall is mentioned in a 9th century charter as Iddeshale meaning "Idi's nook" or corner. A nook is said to be an area of land of approximately 20 acres. It is often conjectured that the two names of Idsall and Shifnal were names of settlements on the east and west side respectively of Wesley Brook.
