==History==
The name is derived from a chapel attached to Chapel Lawn Farm in the 16th century and "lawn" refers to a grassy clearing in the forest. A school was built in the village in 1856,〔''The life and death of Chapel Lawn School'', published by The Redlake Valley Hall Committee〕 on the former village green.〔''A Guide To Shropshire, Third Edition'', Michael Raven (2005), p. 45〕 It had to close in 1985 due to diminished numbers of children; the nearest primary school is now in Bucknell.〔''Shropshire Postcards From The Past: Ludlow and South-West Shropshire'', Ray Farlow and David Trumper (2005), p. 53〕The history of the village and surrounding townships is gradually being researched and placed on a website by a group of local residents (to view the website, simply type 'Chapel Lawn History Group' into a search engine).
