I don't know for sure, but my guess would be that this small residential cul de sac branching off Old Bath Road in Cheltenham, is named for the Buckinghamshire family who fought for both sides in the English Civil War and who were later related by marriage to Florence Nightingale. But as I say, I may be wrong about that.
