TUPTON, a township in North Wingfield parish, Derby; 3 miles S of Chesterfield. It has a post-office under Chesterfield. Real property, £1,435; of which £300 are in mines. Pop. in 1851, 270; in 1861, 1,004. Houses, 200. The increase of pop. arose from extension of coal mining and ironworks. T. Hall is the seat of Mrs. Packman.
