The diagram illustrates the changes in Brindell in 1800, 1900, and 2000.
Overall, a region that was once focused on agriculture has transformed into a combination of industrial site and farmland. In 1800, the farmland for crops was located in the northwest, Brindell was in the southwest, the farmland for animals was in the southeast, and the woodland was in the northeast. The River Stour flowed through the centre of the map.
Initially, there were four features that were not removed during the recorded periods: the farmland for crops, the woodland, the River Stour, and Brindell itself, although their size and layout changed over time. In 1900, the farmland for crops and the River Stour increased in size, while Brindell remained unchanged and the woodland diminished. Conversely, by 2000, Brindell had nearly doubled in size, and the woodland had shrunk slightly, as a new area called Bun Hill Park was constructed beside it. Due to the expansion of Brindell, the construction of the new park, and the growth of the industrial site, the size of the farmland for crops and the River Stour decreased significantly.
Moreover, the farmland used for animals experienced the most significant changes. In 1900, its size remained unchanged but instead of a farmland for animals, it was transformed into an industrial site. Specifically, three working places were located on the right side of the land, while on the left were the Bun Hill, a village for workers. Consequently, by 2000, the region had expanded significantly, to about 1.5 times its size in 1900. In addition, the number of workplaces increased to seven, and Bun Hill Park had grown substantially, to approximately three times its original size.
