Nestleton Close
Nestleton Close is on the grounds of Nestleton Villa, which was located off Back Road (also known as Back Row).

On Monday, 8 September 1930, the villa with its three reception rooms, six bedrooms, and two summerhouses, was to be offered for sale by auction by Thompson and Noad[1].

Linden Close, which leads to Quarrydale Close and Nestleton Close was built in the 1960s, but the maps I have available don't show Nestleton Close until the 1980s.
