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. St Andrew's church is of 13th century origin. 〔 Pevsner, Nikolaus and Brooks, Alan ''Worcestershire'' 2007 Yale University Press, London p594 ISBN 9780300112986 〕 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. 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 of the name as ''Shilsleywalish'', undated, proves this. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Shelsley Walsh」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
