history

The farm is mentioned in a document as Scheven as early as 1220. But there are contradicting first mentions from this year, so that it is not clear which Scheven is meant by the mentions. A Scheven is mentioned in 1220 as a property of the Essen monastery under the Oberhof Nienhausen , but at the same time as the property of the Rellinghausen monastery , but there as two courtyards. In 1355 Scheven is mentioned in a document in a list of the goods belonging to the Bergisch lordship of Hardenberg and in the late Middle Ages and the early modern period it belonged to the Villication of the Oberhof Neviges in the Untensiebeneick peasantry . In 1464, Scheven with a Kotten Im Siepen probably also belonged to Hardenberg.

On the Topographia Ducatus Montani by Erich Philipp Ploennies from 1715, three estates are marked as Schefener Höf . The place is unlabeled on the topographical survey of the Rhineland from 1824 and marked as Scheven on the Prussian first survey from 1843 . On the measurement table of the early 20th century the place bears the name Scheven , from the middle the name Schevenhof .

Schevenhof was close to a supra-local old road , the Alte Kölnische Strasse from Cologne via Hilden , Erkrath - Hochdahl , Mettmann - Diepensiepen and Wülfrath - Oberdüssel to Westphalia. The old Schanzenweg follows the old route here.

In the 19th century, Schevenhof belonged to the Untensiebeneick peasants of the Hardenberg mayor's office , which was renamed Neviges in 1935 . From 1816 to 1861 it belonged to the Elberfeld district and from 1861 to the old Mettmann district .

In 1888, four residents lived in one house in Schevenhof.

Due to the regional reform of North Rhine-Westphalia , Neviges came to the city of Velbert at the beginning of 1975 and the eastern suburbs of Neviges around Schevenhof were incorporated into Wuppertal.
