This section tries to consider the various changes to the southern part of the village centre over the years. As has been mentioned elsewhere, the village sits on various joins of the Ordnance Survey grid mapping, so it is slightly more difficult than it might be to consider the villages as a whole, or even Church Lawford on its own.
One of the aims of an archive is to preserve local knowledge. Although Ordnance Survey Maps are well preserved, so there is no need to store the bare map, it is the recollections of villagers that might be inspired by these maps and with be valuable to store.
