The provided maps compare the outline of Shalton village between 1910 and 2010, in terms of its infrastructure and public facilities.
Looking from an overall perspective, the given village had been developed to have more municipal features, with several residential areas and public amenities. However, three main roads remained for over a century.
Focusing on the previous village, two houses were adjacent to the High street in 1910, which were opposite a grocery and a baker. Additionally, another house was erected between two mentioned places. In the center of the village, a huge residence was situated to the north of the High street, and surrounded by a greenery site with multiple trees. Moreover, the London road and School road cut across and created a T-junction, where a house and a post office were located. Ultimately, there was a school at the end of the School road and a butcher not far from that.
A century later, the village was primarily filled with housing construction, with 4 houses in each main road, exclusively the School Road. In the rectangle site, the green area was completely demolished to make way for a small path that linked to the London Road. Furthermore, a number of additional houses were built in the center area, along with a cafeteria next to the High street. The remaining facilities were unchanged for 100 years, except for the butcher, which was renovated into two different buildings, one for a supermarket, one for a parking lot.
