The first recorded owner of large estates in Shropshire, in particular the manor of All Saints located amongst the villages of Neen Sollars and neighbouring Milson, was Siward the Saxon.

When two of the three Baldwin daughters married members of the De Solars family the village was then formally known as Neen Sollars.

The De Solars family also owned land in Herefordshire including Sutton Frene near Hereford.

This can be proven by looking at a quote transcribed from The National Gazetteer of Great Britain and Ireland, dating from 1868, that states Neen Sollars as being "wholly agricultural".
