Originally an agricultural village which also supported a cottage textile industry, nowadays the residents are generally employed in nearby towns or commute along the M40 corridor. Northants place names are mostly Anglo-Saxon and Danish. ‘Tun’ or ‘Ton’ was the saxon word for an enclosed farm, then later a village or town. After the Norman Conquest the lords added their family name to the manor they had been awarded. Simon de Chenduit held the manor in a 12th century survey; John de Curci held a part in 1205. The name is ultimately derived from medieval latin, ‘casnetum’ (in old French becomes ‘chesnai’), which means oak grove. Originally the village was divided in two; Upper or Church Middleton Originally produced as a Millenium Project 2000 by Nancy Long. and a hamlet a quarter of a mile to the east; Lower or Nether Updated and reprinted 2016.
