P1
The map shows over a period of 126 years from 1868 to 1994.
P2
Chronologically, during the first 15 years from 1868 to 1883, Chorleywood was merely a very small village with one main road to its west.
From 1883 to 1922, we see that the village expanded to south, almost tripled the original scale.
P2
Besides, a railway line was built across the new area from west to east and there emerged the Chorleywood Station.
During 1922-1970, Chorleywood extended both eastward and westward and almost doubled the previous size.
P3
Then during 1970-1994, the village accelerated its pace of development eastward.
A north-south motorway built in 1970 as the axis, with the almost paralleled to east-west main road and railway as two dividing lines, cutting this new area into five parts.
