Badsey & Aldington Trail - Location 21

The Lankets

The road-name derives from Langet which means a narrow strip of land. For older residents of the village, this was a confusing name, as the western end of Brewers Lane, from the High Street to the junction with Chapel Street, had been known in the first half of the 20th century as Lanket Lane.

The Lankets consists of 22 houses that were built in the late 1980s on land which had once formed part of the grounds of Vine Lodge, now called Meadway House, 11 High Street.
