Shelsley Walsh is a small village in Worcestershire, England at the top of the western valley side of the River Teme.
Shelsley Walsh was in the upper division of Doddingtree Hundred.[1]
St Andrew's church is of 13th century origin. [2]
Its population at the time of the 2001 Census was just 31.
Shelsley Walsh is widely known among motorsport enthusiasts because of its association with the Shelsley Walsh Speed Hill Climb, which has been run since 1905.
Etymology
Shelsley Walsh means "clearing on a slope" from Old English scelf "shelf (of land)" and leāh "wood, clearing". The name was recorded as Scillislege in 948[citation needed]. The addition of Walsh to the name is from the surname Walsh, which means "of the Welsh", from Old English walas "Welsh, foreigners". A record[citation needed] of the name as Shilsleywalish, undated, proves this.
