David A Tait
|
David Alexander Tait was born on 16 December 1879 and articled to George Deas Page of Falkirk in June 1897, remaining with him as an assistant from 1902 until 1903. During his time with Page he attended Falkirk School of Science and Art and the Glasgow and West of Scotland Technical College. In 1903 he commenced practice on his own account in Grangemouth, entering into partnership with a slightly younger apprentice at Page's, Henry Wilson, the firm being named Wilson & Tait. He was admitted LRIBA in the mass intake of 20 July 1911 without proposers, his nomination being supported by a character reference from the chairman of Grangemouth Public School Board. He appeared in 'Who's who in architecture' in 1914 but not in 1923.
Wilson & Tait appear to have briefly had an office in Edinburgh at 122 George Street from about 1913-15. Presumably this was to to enable them to undertake a particular job in the city but this has not yet been traced. They also had a branch office in Jedburgh in the mid-1930s, presumably to oversee projects there. Tait retired in 1937. In the same year Henry Wilson merged his practice with that of Strang & Wilson, James Strang also having retired in that year, the combined practice of Wilson & Wilson being now based in Strang's office at 39 Vicar Street, Falkirk.
