The interwar period was marked by a challenging economic landscape. The Great Depression of the 1930s caused widespread unemployment and reduced economic activity, making home construction difficult. Additionally, funding for public housing was limited, and high-interest rates deterred private investment. Social unrest and political instability further dampened growth in the property market.

Despite these conditions, certain areas in Darwen experienced growth, reflecting the changing housing needs and the influence of early urban planning efforts. This graphic provides a fascinating insight into the towns development and offers a window into a unique chapter of British housing history.
