It is probably named after the Bladindon family who owned land in the area.[2] Blendon Hall was built in 1763, was sold to a local housing developer in 1929 and eventually demolished to make way for suburban housing.[3] Today the area is a middle-class residential district with a small row of shops along the western stretch of Blendon Road.
