Brailsford was mentioned in the Domesday Book as belonging to Henry de Ferrers and being worth forty shillings (£2.00)[1].
From Pigot and Co's Commercial Directory for Derbyshire, 1835:
"BRAILSFORD is rather a considerable village, in the parish of its name, and hundred of Appletree; situate on the main road between Derby and Ashbourne, equidistant from each place. Coaches to different parts of the kingdom are continually passing through here, and the support of the village is chiefly derived from that circumstance - there being no manufactures, nor any extensive trade existing here. The places of worship are the parish church, and a chapel for Wesleyan methodists; the former, which is situate, about half a mile from the village, is dedicated to All Saints, and the living is a rectory, in the patronage of Earl Ferrers."[2]
The parish (which has no dependent township) contained, in 1821, 724 inhabitants, & in 1831, 780.
Brailsford Church, or half a church as stated in the Domesday Book[1] - referring to its status as a shared church between Brailsford and the hamlet of Ednaston - is about half a mile from the village. It was originally built in the 11th and 12th centuries and consists of a nave, chancel, south aisle and tower. There have been later modifications like the 14th century chancel arch. The tower is ashlar-faced and diagonally buttressed with a Perpendicular west door and west window. It contains an octagonal font in the Perpendicular style, with the lower part of the base exhibiting the Tudor rose. In the churchyard is a mid 11th century Saxon cross, showing interlace and a human figure.[4]
