The map illustrates the transformation of Shalton Village between 1910 and 2010.
By and large, this village has undergone a number of dramatic changes, the most important of which are the vanishing of the greenery area, and the construction of housing area as well as infrastructure.
To begin with, in 1910, there was a post office at the intersection of London Road (extended from the southeast to the northeast) and School Road (presenting from northeast to southeast). Additionally, a butcher’s shop was situated beside the School Road, between a school and a house. Two houses were located next to High Stress toward the south, which occupied the southern of the village and crossed both the two roads mentioned above. Besides, in the middle of the three roads, there was a greenery area in the vicinity of the big house, and a house was in close proximity to the High Street as well as in the two corners were a grocery and a baker.
After a decade, Shalton Village altered dramatically with the erection of several residential areas and buildings. Particularly, four houses were constructed in the vacant lot on London Road, meanwhile, the initial two houses on Highed Street were rebuilt into four houses. In School Road, the butcher was replaced by parking, and the supermarket, while the house was converted into a bank. The school and the post office remained in the same location after 100 years. Except for the grocery store turned into a café, the other parts of the area in the middle of the map were flattened to make way for residential development
