Name Meaning

English (Sussex): variant of Scholey, a habitational name either from Scholey's Bridge in Hemsworth (Yorkshire) or the lost Scholey in Rastrick (Yorkshire), recorded in that spelling in 1399. The placenames derive from Old Norse skáli ‘(temporary) hut, shed, shieling’ + Old English lēah ‘woodland clearing’. Compare Scales .
