The image is a pair of maps contrasting the village of Stokeford in 1930 and 2010. The 1930 map features a main road traversing from the southwest to northeast, with a bridge over a river. Along this road are shops, a post office, a primary school, and a large house surrounded by farmland. Specifically, five houses are positioned close to the shops, two houses near the post office, and a cluster of six houses next to the primary school. Scattered across the bottom half are four additional houses, identified as farmland residences. Conversely, the 2010 map shows the same main road and bridge but exhibits significant change. The shops have been replaced with a solitary house, while the post office persists. The primary school remains, now neighbored by a retirement home. The farmland has been converted entirely into residential space with thirteen new houses. Across the main road, two more houses have been added next to the existing post-office-adjacent homes, and the cluster previously near the primary school has grown by four more houses. The former large house plot has been redeveloped, featuring five new houses. The previous bottom farmland houses are replaced with a row of six new residences. No farmland is evident in 2010, marking a complete transition from agricultural to residential land use.

The two maps illustrate how the village of Stokeford changed between 1930 and 2010.
Overall, Stokeford developed from a predominantly rural village into a more urbanised one, with much of the farmland replaced by housing. The most notable changes were the loss of the shops and the conversion of the large house into a retirement home, while the river, the bridge and the post office remained unchanged.
In 1930, a long river ran from the south-west to the north-east of the western part. The south was dominated by farmland, while houses, a shop and the post office stood on one side of the main road, and a bridge connected the village with the surrounding area. By 2010, the residential area had expanded considerably and all of the farmland and the small shop between the post office and the houses had disappeared. In addition, several side roads branched off from the main road.
In the eastern part, farmland lay in the north next to a small residential area, and the primary school stood close to the main road. In the south-east, a large house and its gardens occupied a big area. By 2010, the farmland had been replaced by a new road lined with houses on both sides. The school had been extended with two wings so that it became U-shaped. The large house had become a retirement home, some trees in the garden had been cut down to build an access road, and new houses stretched from the centre of the map to the south.
