Etymology
'Mann's scylfe', from the OE pers.n. Mann , Monn and scylfe. The second el. probably means 'shelf.' It has been confused with halh , hyll and sele 1 . Church Minshull, on the west bank of R. Weaver, occupies a broad shelving terrain between the river and the 150 ft. contour, whereas the east bank at that point comes very close to that contour. The affix is cirice 'a church', because this part of Minshull contained a parish church.
