John Lane (clothier)
text:
John Lane was a wealthy clothier from Cullompton in Devon, remembered today for having built the magnificent Lane Chapel on the south side of St Andrew's Church, Cullompton. Due to a misreading of the inscription on the exterior of his Chapel he was said by Polwhele (1793) to have occupied the office of Wapentake Custos, Lanarius,. However no historical evidence supports the existence of such an office and the inscription was later correctly re-interpreted by Smirke (1847).
