In 1870-72, John Marius Wilson's Imperial Gazetteer of England and Wales described Ditton like this:

DITTON, a hamlet in Stoke-Poges parish, Bucks; near the river Thames and the Great Western railway, 2 miles ENE of Windsor. Ditton Park is the seat of Lord Montague; was built, in 1813, by Elizabeth, Duchess of Buccleuch; and occupies the site of an old mansion of the Molinses and the Hungerfords, burnt in 1812.
