The development of Chorleywood, a small town near London, from 1868 to 1994, is shown on this map.
In accordance with the map we see that there was merely one small area and two crossing main roads in 1868 in Chorleywood. The second settlement was not established to the south of the original one until 1883, which was almost twice bigger than the former. In 1909, a railway, parallel to the main road went through from the east to the west, forming an intersection with another main road. From 1922 to 1970 two large resident areas took shape. Then, in the period of 1970 to 1994, five living areas were founded along with a new motorway built from the north to south in 1970.
