Talk:Cley next the Sea

Name pronunciation
I don't think the pronunciation guide for the town name is very clear; perhaps it should say something like "rhymes with eye"...

Its pronounced Clay, to rhyme with pray, Cly (rhyming with eye) is an affectation of middle-class incomers from London and the like —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.155.220.92 (talk) 23:05, 7 August 2009 (UTC)

I visited the other week and everyone (including bus drivers and locals) pronounced the Cley as /ˈklaɪ/ to rhyme with eye. Any thoughts on a source that could be used to clarify this? Abergabe (talk) 09:02, 2 September 2013 (UTC)


 * Yes the unsigned and anonymous comment is nonsense, I've been to Cley more than 100 times, and never heard it pronounced other than to rhyme with eye. Are there any -ey words that rhyme with pray?  Jimfbleak -  talk to me?  09:18, 2 September 2013 (UTC)


 * 'prey' rhymes with 'pray' 217.42.116.75 (talk) 10:32, 30 July 2015 (UTC)

Link to BBC
I do not understand why the link to the video of Cley Next the Sea on BBC One cannot be inserted. This was a great achievement for the village and deserves recognition. (86.53.67.133 (talk) 10:21, 8 November 2011 (UTC))

Name derivation
Not to challenge the primary Anglo-Saxon derivation, but should not the similarity of the name to Welsh lle "place" and its presumed British forebear be noted? Diomedea Exulans (talk) 12:53, 8 January 2014 (UTC)
