Heath and Reach - Lane's End
Heath and Reach has some lovely buildings, these cottages on Lane's End being examples. Heath and Reach is a quite sought-after village to the north of Leighton Buzzard, but it does rather suffer from the busy road that cuts through it.

Heath and Reach
A view of Heath Green in the middle of the village, with the splendid combined pump and clock house, the trademark Bedfordshire village name board, the Wesleyan Church behind the trees in the background and some of the old houses.
My usually trusty Dictionary of Place Names has nothing to say about the unusual name Heath and Reach.
Elsewhere, I found a suggestion that it's as simple as one part of the parish being on sand, hence heath, and part being on a length, or reach, of the River Ouzel. However, the obvious frequently isn't correct when it comes to place names, so I'll leave it there.
