Leigh /ˈlaɪ/, historically spelled Lyghe, is a village and a civil parish located in the Sevenoaks district of Kent, England.
Much of the land around the village was acquired in the 14th century by Sir John de Pulteney, owner of nearby Penshurst Place.
[3] The village grew substantially in the 19th century when the Baily and Morley families built many of the distinctive buildings present today, including Hall Place, East and Old Lodges, The Square, Forge Square and School Master's House.
The Fleur De Lis was originally built as cottages by Thomas Baily in 1855, but was bought by a local brewery, Bartrum and Company, in 1870.
[4] Leigh railway station is on the Redhill to Tonbridge line and is located to the south of the village centre.
