Lyne is a village in the Borough of Runnymede in Surrey, England, approximately 32 km (20 mi) southwest of central London.
This meant it was a hamlet dominated by landholding of Chertsey Abbey throughout the Middle Ages; and before, as this was one of the earliest religious communities centred on a large building in the country, founded in the mid 7th century.
[2] The 16th century replacement to great tything barn is here, close to the present Chertsey proper, that is in the east of Lyne.
In the 17th century Almners was built which gives its name to one of the two long built-up low-rise, low density residential roads containing most of the housing of the village.
A minority was destroyed in World War II bomb damage to be rebuilt in brick but is otherwise a late Tudor period structure with the remainder almost wholly added in the 17th century.
[6] Lyne and Longcross C of E Infant School with Nursery is sponsored by the Church of England, on the Voluntary Aided legal footing.
