Neal Close, Salisbury

Neal Close is on the Bishopdown Farm estate, in the north east outskirts of the city of Salisbury.

I’m afraid I don’t know the reason why it’s called Neal Close.

There are a number of roads in the area which are, I think, surnames but I can’t see any link between them.

The name ‘Neal’ itself has the same linguistic root as Niall, and presumably, Neil. It comes from the Gaelic word ‘Nial, meaning ‘champion’.
