In the 7th century St Chad, the patron Saint of Lichfield Cathedral, visited a Fosse or a deep broad ditch located near the Telecom tower and stopped at a gate 400 m from the Pye Green junction. From then on the area to the south was called “Chads – Moor”. However, Cameron. points out that -kirk toponyms more frequently incorporate the name of the dedicatee, so it is not so certain that Chadsmoor was named after the saint.
