Background
History
In 1798, Edward Hasted records that it had once been called Dunstall. This comes from the Saxon words dun, or dune, meaning a hill, and stealle meaning a place. It was recorded in the Domesday survey, mistakenly as Stealle. At that time the parish covered around nine hundred acres of land (about 364 ha), of which about one hundred and forty were woodland.
