The parish dates back to Saxon times. Prior to the Norman conquest of 1066, it was held by the theign Ulf. After the conquest, it was held by Gilbert of Ghent as recorded in the 1086 Domesday Book. The Lower Icknield Way, a prehistoric track that runs below the Chiltern Escarpment, runs through the village and aligns with the church mound.
