The Church of St John the Evangelist is a Grade II* listed building and is part of Market Bosworth Benefice. It was rebuilt by the Wollaston family in about 1860. A 17th-century memorial to William Wollaston was moved into the church.

The manor of Shenton was first mentioned in the Domesday Book of 1086 as 'Scentone', where it is recorded as being owned by the Norman magnate, administrator and landowner Henry de Ferrers. This manor formed the estate that belongs to Shenton Hall today. William Wollaston purchased the 2,300-acre (930 ha) estate at Shenton in 1626. Though the family had humble origins from Staffordshire, Henry Wollaston had established a successful drapery business in London, after being apprenticed to a woollen draper as a young man. In 1616, Henry Wollaston died and William inherited his father’s profitable business, which enabled him to purchase Shenton Hall. Records state that William Wollaston did not begin to build (or rebuild) Shenton Hall until 1629. Wollaston displayed this date along with his initials on a stone tablet set into the gatehouse (“WW 1629“). The house was greatly extended to the rear in 1862. The Wollastons occupied the house until 1940 when the army took possession of it.
