History

Edingale was mentioned in the Domesday book as part of Derbyshire and belonging to Henry de Ferrers[6] and being worth two shillings.[7] The name of the village comes from Old English, with the meaning nook of land of Edin's (or Eadwine's) people.[8]

Until the late 19th century the village of Edingale was divided between the chapelry of Edingale, within Alrewas parish in Staffordshire, and the parish of Croxall, in Derbyshire.[9][10]

In 1831 the population of the Staffordshire village was 177.[11] By 1851 it had risen to 197, on about 850 acres of land, when the lord of the manor was the Earl of Lichfield, though the land belonged to a number of other persons.[12]

Formerly in Tamworth Rural District, the parish became part of Lichfield Rural District during the boundary changes of 1934.[13] The civil parish of Croxall was incorporated into Edingale at the same time.[14]

A number of houses in the village are listed Grade II, as is the Church of the Holy Trinity and associated buildings. The village of Croxall also has a number of historic buildings.[15] Chetwynd Bridge, an early cast-iron arch bridge, crosses the River Tame from neighbouring Alrewas on the western edge of the parish.[16]
