Bickley history
The area’s name is first recorded in 1279, the ‘ley’ or ‘lea’ referring to a forest clearing, and ‘Bicca’ either meaning a pointed ridge, or a personal name. The area remained rural, save for a small hunting lodge belonging to the Wells family dating to 1759. The Lodge was gradually enlarged to become Bickley Hall, a classical house designed by Robert Mylne, FRS, for John Wells, shipbuilder, in 1780.
