Monument record MDR12210 - Former grounds of Tupton Hall, Station New Road, Old Tupton

The extent of the grounds surrounding Tupton Hall appears, from map comparison, to have increased over the course of the 19th century. Sanderson's map of 1835 and the Tithe Map of 1843 shows blocks of fields to the west, north-east and south-east of the hall. (1, 2) These fields appear to have been incorporated into the grounds by c. 1880, with part of the former possibly having been used to create an orchard and kitchen garden. (3) Four fishponds are shown on the historic maps, of which only the northernmost appears to have survived.
