London Road was known as Back Lane over a hundred years ago. On the 1838 map below it is clearly marked as Back Lane. At other times the lower section near the Gas Works has been referred to as Combers Mead. On the 1890 Ordnance Survey map the lower section was called Combers Mead, and the area around The Retreat was Back Lane.
