Tait Avenue
A Memory of New Edlington.
I was born in 1949, soon after my parents had moved into 36 Tait Avenue, one of the first Council Houses to be built at Hill Top, New Edlington. I lived there until 1963 shortly before the Comprehensive School was built on farmland at the back of our house. I assume that Tait Avenue was named after Councillor Tait although I never knew her.
My grandparents lived on Woodlands Terrace. They came to the village from Staffordshire during the 1920s and my Grandad was a miner at Yorkshire Main Colliery.
