What is "funtley"

Funtley – from the Anglo-Saxon, "Funtaleg", meaning "Springs", formerly Fontley – is a village in the north of the borough of Fareham, Hampshire, England. The village originally grew from the development of a clay quarry, the clay used to make chimney pots and bricks—the famous Fareham Red. The bricks were widely used, most famously in the construction of the Royal Albert Hall in London.

Sometimes still known as 'Fontley' by locals, the village is no longer a discrete settlement owing to the post- World War II expansion of Fareham, and is now a suburb separated from the main conurbation by the M27 motorway. The brickworks are long closed, the clay quarry is now a fishing lake, and only the village's pub, The Miners Arms, survives as a testament to its former industry.
