History
Wooman Towers in Wyke Hills was named after Wooman Way, the dirt road that originally linked Wyke Hills to Stanbury Village in the heart of Old Malton. Wooman Way was originally supposed to be named Dooman Way, after Lord William Dooman, Mayor of Malton at the time. Unfortunately in the early 20th century suburbs and streets were named by local handymen who were sent to erect the signs in the neighborhood, so rather then having Dooman Way leading out to the new suburb of Dyke Hills the dyslexic handyman ended up making up a sign reading Wooman Way, the best Way to Wyke Hills. Unfortunately the Great Fire of 1912 swept through Malton the following year forcing the sign to remain as the increasingly religious right wing refused to have a suburb renamed Dyke Hills. Exactly why the Mayor wanted the suburb named Dyke Hills never became completely clear however it is likely his wife had lesbian tendencies.
Thus the name of Wooman became synonymous with the area and eventually spread to other places in Malton to form the names of Railway Stations and Streets. Wooman Towers itself was named by the grandson of the very handyman from our previous story, a grandson who went on to become a wealthy businessman who erected buildings and monuments across our fair city. As dyslexia is a genetic disorder many of these very monuments and buildings can be found on the list of Amusing Locations in Malton.
