KNOTTINGLEY STREET NAMES
ADDED 12 FEBRUARY 2005
Could you or
one of your online friends tell me where Kallodine Road was in
Knottingley?

I have
never heard of Kallodine Road. Ben Kallodyne Terrace was on Racca Green
where the bakery is now. It was owned by Ben Tupman, an old sea captain,
but the terrace only had TWO houses. The entrance at the side of the
bakery led to Tupman;s Yard or Tupman's Square. My attempts to track down
the origins of Kalodyne have so far failed but Ben Tupman called one of
his ships 'Kalodyne' and his wife was either French or Belgian and I have
often wondered if it had anything to do with her name.
