Unremarkable modern business units beside the canal, but the name is much older. The village of Langley was once known as Langley Marish, the second part of the name derived from Christiana de Marecis who had the Manor during the reign of Edward 1st. The local C of E parish still uses the name http://langleymarish.com/
