Lane down the law – douzaine says it is Ruette du Villocq Empty Lane down the law – douzaine says it is Ruette du Villocq

After living in the Villocq Lane for 30 years, Hugh Bromley is annoyed that Castel douzaine has unilaterally renamed it – a move he fears could cause difficulties with official documents.

Le Villocq Lane has been renamed Ruette du Villocq – and surprised residents are not happy.

The road between Route de Saumarez and Route de Cobo has been known as Le Villocq Lane for more than 40 years.

But the douzaine decided that was too English and changed it without consulting or informing the people who live there.

That has angered Shirley and Hugh Bromley, who have lived in the section between Guildown Close and Le Villocq Estate for around 30 years.

Sounds a little petty to me, to many roads have be "anglesied" lets get back to tradition...
