The three maps compare how the town of Brindell and its surrounding areas changed between 1800 and 2000.

Overall, Brindell experienced substantial urban and industrial development over the two centuries. Although farmland for crops and the woodland remained largely intact, residential and industrial areas expanded significantly, while a new park was created and the River Stour became narrower.

In 1800, the area surrounding Brindell was predominantly rural. The River Stour divided the landscape, with farmland for crops situated to the north-west and woodland occupying the north-east. South of the river, Brindell was located beside a large area of farmland used for animals, and there were no industrial or recreational facilities.

By 1900, the former animal farmland had been completely replaced by Bun Hill, a village built for industrial workers, while an industrial area had also been established nearby. However, the woodland and the crop farmland remained virtually unchanged compared with a century earlier.

By 2000, Brindell had expanded considerably, as had Bun Hill and the industrial zone. As a result, the River Stour became noticeably narrower. Another major development was the construction of Bun Hill Park alongside the woodland. Despite these changes, the farmland for crops continued to occupy the same location throughout the entire period.
