history

In the 19th century the farm at An der Schockel belonged to the Uellendahler Rotte of the Lord Mayor's Office of Elberfeld . At that time, the place was right on the border between the mayor's office and the Dönberg farming community in the Hardenberg town hall , which was renamed Neviges in 1935 .

The place is marked on the topographical survey of the Rhineland from 1824 as Schockel and on the Prussian first survey from 1843 as old Schökel .

In 1815/16 15 people lived in An der Schockel. The place, categorized as Kotten according to the statistics and topography of the Düsseldorf administrative district in 1832 , was designated as an der Schockel and at that time had two residential buildings and three agricultural buildings. At that time, 17 residents lived in the village, all of them Protestant faith.

To the north of An der Schockel, a coal path ran from Sprockhövel to Elberfeld (here today's Westfalenweg and today's Kohlstrasse, which is what it is called today ) past the coal from the mines in the south in the late 18th century and in the first half of the 19th century Ruhr area was transported to the factories in Wuppertal, which at that time was the industrial heart of the region.
