Running in an arc from Newton Road to Brushes Lane and developed sometime between 1955-62 on the site of two former fields called Great Tainter Mead and Upper Tainter Mead according to Lindfield's 1845 tithe map. The word tainter appears to be a corruption of tenter and evidence that a cloth industry was once established here (there is also a Fulling Mill Farm to the north of the village near the river). Cloth from the fulling mill was fixed to frames in an open field called tenters to stretch, dry and straighten the weave. The road name derives from Dukes Barn which was situated on the southern side of the field and commemorated by a set of flats called Dukes Barn Court.
