Text from the free encyclopedia WIKIPEDIA may appear below to give a little background information (internal links may not work) :
*************
Muchelney is a village and civil parish in Somerset, England, on the River Parrett, 1.5 miles (2.4 km) south of Huish Episcopi and 5.5 miles (8.9 km) miles south west of Somerton in the South Somerset district. The village has a population of about 210.[1]
Adjacent to Muchelney are the hamlets of Thorney and Muchelney Ham.
The village was recorded as Micelenie in the Domesday book meaning 'the increasingly great island' from the Old English miclian and from the Norsk Øe.[2] The -ey or -y suffix served as the old English designation for ""island"", and thus is common to many of the villages in this area of the Somerset Levels, which stood as islands just above the marshes, which have since been drained.
The parish of Muchelney was part of the Pitney Hundred.[3]
The village is best known as the site of Muchelney Abbey, a Benedictine abbey founded by King Athelstan in 939, and largely demolished in the Dissolution of the Monasteries. Architectural details of houses in the surrounding area are thought to incorporate fragments scavenged when the Abbey was destroyed.[4]
