Additional Info

Geographically, Dunton is situated some 26 miles east of London, set back 4 miles from the passing River Thames in the county of Essex.

The earliest known reference to Dunton can be traced back to the Domesday Book of 1086 when the area was then referred to as Dantuna. The name is believed to be of Saxon origin dating from the Anglo-Saxon occupation of south east Essex. Its population is mainly centred around Dunton Road and Lower Dunton Road.

The name Dunton appears to have evolved from the words dun, the Anglo-Saxon term for hill, and tun, meaning occupation. This could be interpreted to mean hill town, which of course Dunton is anything but.
