The newspaper cutting below explains the origins of Folly Road. I don't know the date or the paper it came from. However it is in my great grandfather's scrapbook, and is likely from the 1930's. It also denotes that the builder of "Cuddy's Folly", from where Folly Road got its name, was his great grandfather. Hope this finally resolves the mystery.
