About Crawley - show infohide info
The town is an unparished borough in the northern part of Sussex, bordering Surrey. The borough is bordered by the Sussex Local Authorities of Mid Sussex and Horsham. The village of Crawley remained relatively undeveloped until the coming of the railway, in the mid 19th century, but had developed into a small-sized town of under 10,000 people by World War II, clustered around the main London to Brighton road (now the A23). In 1947, it was designated as a New Town area under the New Towns Act of 1946. Its development then ballooned during the 1950s and 1960s, bringing it to a population of around 60,000. Since that time, the town has continued to grow, incorporating neigbouring settlements. During the boom of the 1980s the town boasted the lowest level of unemployment in the UK. It is now bypassed by the M23. In the area are the towns of Horsham, East Grinsted, Uckfield, Guildford, Redhill, Hayards Heath and Royal Tunbridge Wells. London Gatwick Airport is within the town boundaries.
