@Keith Scantlebury has asked me does anyone know the exact year(s) when this estate was built?

I checked the OS maps and the first map I could find with the estate on is the 'Revised: 1938 Published: ca 1947 and it shows the nearby streets named but the Burnside estate is not named.

When I checked on the overlay section of the National Library of Scotland site it has maps for 1937 to 1961 that can be overlaid with today's aerial image of the area and that has the Burnside estate on the first section but none of the streets are named : -
