Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Dalton Close. Dalton Close is built on the site of the original "Tubbenden", for many years owned by the Maxwell family, as commemorated by The Maxwell (see 1273947), formerly the Maxwell Arms.

One of the Maxwells, Elizabeth, in 1804 married Thomas Young, famed among many and varied things for his establishment of the wave theory of light, his work on the operation of the eye, his work on elasticity, and his pioneering work in relation to the translation of the Rosetta Stone.

For most of the first half of the twentieth century, Tubbenden was the site of Cook's Poultry Farm, run by William Henry Cook. W H Cook was the son of William Cook, the breeder of the Buff Orpington and other Orpington breeds of poultry. A photo shows the entrance to the farm off Tubbenden Lane, including the milestone in 1120930 which still stands the entrance to Dalton Close (see 1120935).

The name Dalton Close presumably refers to the name Dalton, who were the owners of the manor of Tubbenden in the 16th/17th century.
