editThe parish was renamed from "Latimer" to "Latimer and Ley Hill" on 9 April 2013.[3] The parish council was also renamed from "Latimer Parish Council" to "Latimer and Ley Hill Parish Council" at the same time. It was felt that the name better reflected the area since Ley Hill ward accounted for 65% of the electors.[4]
