John,
I do not know if this is of help. Not far from Saffron Walden there is an area called "Duck End". If I recall (have not visited the area for 15 years) it is little more than a hamlet. There was even a "Duck End Farm" in the area. Sorry I cannot help more. If you have details of your grandfather's parents it may be worth researching local churchyards.
Regards,
Michael
