Ranvilles Lane
Street guide, Titchfield
Ranvilles Lane lies to the south of the village centre, connecting to the routes heading towards the coast and the nature reserve. The lane serves a residential area of mixed housing, ranging from 1960s bungalows to later development. It connects to Barry's Meadow and to the footpaths leading south towards Posbrook Lane. The name Ranvilles has Norman origins and appears in historical records relating to land holdings in the Titchfield area. The lane is residential in character and carries local traffic. Some of the properties along it have substantial gardens, and the southern end of the lane begins to feel more rural as the built-up area thins out. Ranvilles Lane is a quiet residential street that benefits from its position between the village centre and the open land to the south.
