Difficult to find that kind of information about Balloon Woods Flats because they didn't exist for very long. I didn't know the area at the time, but I found a map showing road names for the area, and there isn't a Kielder Way among them. (but it doesn't mean there wasn't one).

 

For info, the roads into the flats were named Rogerstead Way, Barnstead Way, Hesselstead Way, and Alnestead and Moorstead (without the Way bit).

 

Then in another section the names were Fylingdale, Airedale, Nidderdale, and Wharfdale.

 

So you can see what they were thinking when they named it all.

 

Can you give us a surname for the people you are searching for ?
