The name Marshalswick comes from John and William Marschal who owned land between 1271 and 1377, and Wick which meant 'hamlet', 'town' or 'village' in Old English.
Marshalswick Mansion House was demolished in 1927 and most of the land is now part of the Marshalswick housing estate.

Marshalswick Farm was sold in the 1930s for private housing and occupied the same site where the Quadrant shopping precinct now stands. The only remaining historic building is the old brewhouse in Marshals Drive.
