More about this scene
Chesham also developed north of the town centre along the valleys and ridges in the late 19th and 20th centuries, the northern part being named Newtown. Broadly speaking, the valley along Broad Street and Berkhamstead Road was for artisans and the working classes, the areas to east and west were middle class. The arrival of the Metropolitan Railway branch stimulated much of this growth and Stanley Avenue is typical of the latter, a tree-lined street of semi-detached suburban villas of the turn of the century.
