The Ley lea ly bit just means field or area of land. at one time the ley was pronounced LIE as in Ardingly maybe thats how we got the saying ... the lie of the land? |

Please could anyone tell me which is the most accepted spelling - West Hoathley or West Hoathly? Google brings up countless entries for both. |
