THE Edgehill estate in Scarborough, where 250 council houses have been demolished to make way for a development, now has a community centre.

Opening the Falsgrave Centre, Mayor Sheila Kettlewell said the scheme would be a major asset to the Falsgrave and Edgehill area. It includes a sports hall and meeting rooms for use by local organisations.
