Marston Maisey is the spelling for the civil parish,[2] but not for the village on Ordnance Survey maps.

[11] The former vicarage, over the road from the church, was built in 1863–4 to designs of J. P. St Aubyn;[12] it is now called Bleeke House.

[13] Marston Hill House, 1 mile north of the village, was built in 1884–5 for Frederick Bulley, president of Magdalen College, Oxford.

In 1648 the manor was bought by Robert Jenner (c.1584–1651), a North Wiltshire man who had prospered as a silver merchant in the City of London.

[15] He paid for the derelict chapel to be rebuilt on its former site at Manor Farm, and for a few years it was again granted parish church status.

Colourful stained glass windows by George Baguley were installed in 1883–1894[12] and are described as "good" by Historic England in the 1986 designation of the church as Grade II* listed.

[17] The benefice was united with that of Meysey Hampton in 1924 (both parishes being in Gloucester diocese),[18] effective on the first vacancy, which occurred in 1937.

A three-storey circular lengthsman's cottage survives at Round House Farm alongside a bridge, a short stretch of water and vestiges of a lock.
