Description

Ubley is a small village and civil parish within the Chew Valley in Bath and North East Somerset about 9 miles south of Bristol. It is just south-east of Blagdon Lake, just off the A368 between Compton Martin and Blagdon.

Ubley was listed in the Domesday Book of 1086 as Tumbeli, meaning 'The rolling meadow' from the Old English tumb and leah. An alternative explanation is that it comes from Ubba's leah or clearing in the woodland. A further explanation of the name is that in Roman times when Charterhouse Roman Town was producing lead and silver it was known as Veb, and as V and U are interchangeable in Latin, Ubley derives from Veb-ley, and was originally a settlement where Romano-British lead miners lived.
