The Lantokay This Wetherspoon freehouse originally occupied the two middle cottages in this High Street terrace and has since expanded into an adjoining property. The four cottages are shown on the 1886 OS map, but are much older. After World War Two, one became a grocer's shop, in the 1970s, it was combined with the cottage next door to form Fine Shoes. In 2002, the premises were converted into The Lantokay, which was named after the earliest known settlement here. It means the sacred enclosure of Kay, who was a Celtic saint. During the 12th century the Roman causeway across the marshes was restored and Lantokay was called Street, from the Latin word 'strata', meaning a paved road. These premises were opened by J D Wetherspoon in January 2002 and refurbished in April 2017.
