Stonnall is a village in Staffordshire, England, close to Shenstone, Brownhills, Walsall Wood and Aldridge.

The name Stonnall may be derived from the Anglo-Saxon words stan and halh, meaning stony nook of land.

[citation needed] However, in the medieval pipe rolls, the alternative Stonwal is given alongside the more familiar form.

[citation needed] Bronze Age activity in the area is attested by the discovery of the Stonnall Hoard[1][2] at Gainsborough Farm in 1824.

[citation needed] In the 12th century, Stonnall together with the rest of the Parish of Shenstone was given to Osney Abbey by Baron Robert D'Oyly,[3] the high constable of Oxford.

[citation needed] In the late Middle Ages, Stonnall was a staging point on the coach route between London and Chester.

[citation needed] In the early 19th century, under the direction of the Church of England and with the assistance of the manor, a very highly detailed tithe map of the Parish of Shenstone was produced, along with a book of awards that was signed off by John Mellor,[4] the estate manager at Little Aston Hall.

[citation needed] William Tennant, Lord of the Manor of Shenstone, gave the land on which the church is situated along with £100 towards the construction of the building.

[citation needed] William Tennant also provided land for the construction of the National School, Stonnall's first educational establishment.

[citation needed] Stonnall has a small collection of shops, two public houses, (the Royal Oak and The Swan), a village hall and St Peter's C of E Primary School.
