No.2 is an urban myth. While not explicitly mentioning remote key fobs, see here:

And as key fobs use a tiny voltage, way less than mobile phones or car batteries, it is supported by:

Thanks. I thought that might be the case

Nos 2 - 18 Church lane are called Haydn Terrace and were built in 1902, according to the wall plaque.
Thank you, Tony.

(To settle a dinner party argument this evening).

1. ( Can anyone remind me of the name of the row of houses at the bottom of Church Lane between Leigh Avenue and the petrol station?
  
2. For the firemen or firewomen or scientists on the forum - Is it true, as I read the other day, that use of the zapper to lock your car when you are on the garage forecourt is a potential fire/explosion hazard?
