Towerds to the village Laleham on Thames.

Laleham is a village beside the River Thames.

The toponym "Laleham" probably comes from lael meaning twig and ham meaning water meadow or village.

There may have been a 1st-century Roman marching camp on the field which is now part of Matthew Arnold School.

Iron Age spearheads from the 5th century have been found in the River Thames at Laleham Ferry. 10th-century charters record the village of Laelham

 

 Laleham Abbey was once called Laleham House until 1928. Designed by J.B. Papworth, it was wholly rebuilt in 1803–06 as the country seat of Richard Bingham, 2nd Earl of Lucan and altered, again to Papworth's designs, in the 1820s and 30s.  Its park covered 83 acres (34 ha), some of which is now Laleham Park, the largest park in Spelthorne. The house is neoclassical with a Doric portico. Inside are marble floors and columns, a semi-circular staircase and a cupola. Maria II of Portugal stayed here for her English stay, touring three European courts during Miguel of Portugal's 1826–1834 insurrection. The house was divided into apartments in 1981.
