Historical Note
Percheron Close was constructed in the grounds of the former Impington Hall and it is understood that the grounds of the Hall were landscaped by the English landscape architect, Lancelot "Capability" Brown. Percheron Close appears to have taken its name from the Percheron heavy horses used by Chivers after World War I to draw their wagons laden with fruit.
