This section deals with the change in the Crawley area that came in the late 1940s, with the building of the New Town. Until this time, Crawley had been a community based around farming, and consequently much of the land around the town was farmland.
This first map shows how the area looked in 1948, detailing each of the main farming areas.
The second sheet is a black and white map of the neighbourhoods of Crawley as they appeared in Spring 2000. This sheet is to the same scale as the first, and can be copied onto a transparency and treated as an overlay. .
The third map, shows the Crawley neighbourhoods in colour. Each neighbourhood is coloured in the colour used on that neighbourhood's road signs
The final sheet is a cloze procedure worksheet. The gaps in the form can be completed with reference to the farm map, and either of the neighbourhood maps on this page. It may also me necessary to have an A-Z of Crawley available for some questions.
