History
An Anglo-Saxon charter of AD 780Шаблон:Efn names a piece of land as 'Earnaleach and Tielesora' that was given to the church of St Paul.Шаблон:Efn[1][2] Then in a charter, dated AD930, King Æthelstan granted to Bishop Beornheah of Selsey,Шаблон:Efn land at Medmerry in Selsey 'with the woodland and fields lying therewith called Erneleia'.[3]
Historically Earnley was situated in the hundred of La Manwode or Manwood, now known under the form Manhood. The name La Manwode means 'the common wood' and extended round HundredsteddleШаблон:Efn Farm, where the boundaries of the Witterings, Birdham, and Earnley coincide. HundredsteddleШаблон:Efn was the meeting place for the hundred moot and other hundred business. The name HundredsteddleШаблон:Efn refers to the floor on which the Hundred court would have sat.[4][5] It lay in the ancient pre-Conquest division of Sussex known as the Rape (county subdivision) of Chichester. The Domesday survey does not include Earnley, however it is possible that at that time it was included with East Wittering or West Wittering.[6] The mediæval lords of the manor here belonged to the Ernle, Ernley, or Erneley family, and derived their surname from a manor they held in this parish. The land was given to Luke de Ernele by his nephew, William de Lancing as part of a Knight's fee, in 1166.[2]
Earnley Church is a grade II* listed church[7] and together with its small graveyard is contained within retaining stone walls of an interesting boat shaped island of land. The nave is of 13th-century origin. A century later the chancel was added; an aumbry fitted with a carved door dates back to the 14th century. The first recorded rector was in office in 1365; parish registers survive from 1562, but there is no record of a dedication. It has always simply been "Earnley Church".[8]
Placename
The O.E. form of Earnley was Earnlēah. 'Earn' meaning Eagle (or possibly a person's name) and 'lēah' wood, glade or clearing.[9] [10]
