The provided illustration demonstrates the town of Malvern and the development that ensued in it within 200 years.
A bird’s-eye examination of the images highlights some notable additions and alterations, especially in the residential and urban landscape, signified by an increased number of houses, the construction of a bridge, the eradication of the farm, the development of schools and shops.
In 1820, the town comprised of 100 homes in its north-east, forest patch in the south-east, a river in the east and a farm at its center. In 1920, the number of houses doubled, and a road was also constructed, connecting the residential are with the river. In the same time frame, a bridge was also built over the river. Further, a reduction in the farm and forest area is also evident.
By 2020, construction of five shops along the river, two schools with sports fields, addition of 300 more homes, totaling to 500, a road connecting residential area with the schools and a wetland for birds, marked a significant jump in the rennovation of Malvern.
