Chelsfield village,

The name was recorded in Domesday Book as ‘Cillesfelle’, but transcription errors were common in that survey, and in the following year another document rendered it as ‘Chilesfeld’. The name may have indicated a ‘chilly field’, given the exposed nature of the high ground, but was more likely to have derived from ownership by a man called C?ol.

The church of St Martin of Tours is of early Norman origin, and was altered and enlarged in the 13th century.

In 1290 Otto de Grandison granted Chelsfield a charter declaring that “there may be one market at my manor of Chelsfield each week on Monday, and one fair each year, at the same, lasting three days.”

Several lanes converge on the village and drovers would stop here to obtain water for their livestock and ale for themselves. The Five Bells public house takes its name from the unusual number of bells that the church used to have.
