The roots of Foulkes Village extend back to the settlement of Anglo-Saxon farmers and pigherds in the post-Roman 'dark ages', a fact attested to by the plethora of Anglo-Saxon place names in the area, such as Etheldreda General Hospital, St. Aelred's Church (focal point of the original village), Fyfhyde Plaza and the Ffych Building. Viking invasions in the area were limited to the raids by Lorgh Redclaw of Lorgh Walk fame, so for centuries the Village remained a green and peaceful haven from the violent and turbulent world beyond its meadows and woodlands.
The Malton suburb of Foulkes Village was originally founded as a separate township in the 18th Century. The Foulkes family, led by patriarch Marvin Foulkes, settled in the area of present day St. Aelred's Church in 1774. Further members of the Foulkes family, along with relatives and friends moved to the area in the following years, building several homes and businesses. In 1792, the area was incorporated as a township named Foulkes Village in honor of the original founding family in the area. Interestingly, the family name Foulkes may itself derive from the Anglo-Saxon word folc, meaning people. This confirms the suspicion of many Maltonians that 'Foulkesians' generally don't get out much, and jokes about Village in-breeding are rife.
Foulkes Village was eventually annexed by the expanding city of Malton in 1859. With the annexation came rapid growth, primarily industrial. The neighborhood still has a number of factories, warehouses and auto repair facilities that reflect its industrial past. The government of Malton divided the area into three neighborhoods – Crew Avenue, Vincent Square, and Frye Alley. The City established police departments in each of these neighborhoods to serve the local residents.
At the time of the quarantine, Foulkes Village was in the midst of a renaissance of sorts, having become a trendy area of Malton to live in. With low housing prices, the area attracted young residents of Malton. A number of cultural institutions followed, including several museums, libraries and cinemas.
Despite this youthful influx, the Village had a reputation for being sleepy and geriatric, with the nickname 'Old Foulkes Home' proving difficult to dislodge from the popular imagination. To some extent, the zombie outbreak has dispelled this image, as the elderly Villagers have discovered newfound lust for life: especially brains and internal organs. Lurching along with their Zimmer frames, these blue-rinsed zombies can be surprisingly tenacious and energetic in their search for fresh blood.
