Warsill was historically an extra parochial area. It became a civil parish in 1858.[3] Today it shares a grouped parish council with Bishop Thornton.[4]
The toponym, first recorded in 1132 as Warthsala, probably derives from the Old English weard sæl, meaning "watch castle".[5] In the Middle Ages there was a grange of Fountains Abbey here, and Warsill Hall Farmhouse, a 17th-century Grade II listed building, now stands on its site.[6]
