The maps depict features altered to develop the region of Brindell between 1800 and 2000.
Overall, it could be observed that the site has been industrialised during the process, while also introducing amenities that are oriented towards the factory workers. Notably, the west region did not saw much alterations, while the area on the right was modified dramatically.
Initially, Brindell consisted of 5 main areas in 1800, with a semi-circular region for woodland located in the north east of the map, and a farmland in the south east. In 1900, the place for cultivating animals was replaced by several industry factories and a village for their workers called “Bun Hill”. Subsequently, the wood land shrinked in size, giving space for the newly built infrastructures. The river stour between these sites, conversely, was completely unchanged from its original position. Turning to the left side, there is another farmland, which was used for crops cultivation, the site remained unchanged throughout the 100 years, as well as the inner Brindell region, located in the south west of the map.
In the year 2000, the crops’ farmland remained static, the inner Brindell region, however, was enlarged. Moreover, the woodland has been further reduced in size, allowing a “Bun Hill’ Park to be constructed on the land. In addition, more industrial areas were built, and the “Bun Hill” village increased in size.
