Tuckswood is a roughly triangular area bounded by Ipswich, Lakenham and Hall roads. The element "Tuck" in the name must have been what inspired someone to give most of the streets in the area Robin Hood-themed names. Tuckswood place-name cluster is the largest group of such names I have found anywhere.
