History
The village is mentioned three times in the Domesday Book as Scacheldene or Scachelsey in the Bulford hundred. At the time of the Norman invasion, the lands around the village were owned by Orm, son of Gamal, Earl Waltheof and Gamal, son of Kalri. Afterwards the lands were granted to Hugh, son of Baldric, Count Robert of Mortain and King William I.[1]
A school was built in the village in 1866, but is no longer in use. A Primitive Methodist church was also erected in 1888, which is also no longer in use.[2]
