The hamlet of Thirn is mentioned in the Domesday Book, and the name derives from the Old English þyrne, meaning thorn-bush.[4][5][6] Historically the hamlet was in the ecclesiastical parish of Thornton Watlass, in the wapentake of Hang East.[7][8]

There is a former Wesleyan Chapel which is located on the road to Thornton Watlass,[8] and a former public house (The Boot & Shoe).[9]
