About

Maidenbower West and Furnace Green occupy the eastern side of Crawley and are mainly residential neighbourhoods created as part of the town’s post‑war expansion. Maidenbower West centres on a parade of local shops, community facilities and Oriel High School, with short links of footpaths and cycle routes into adjoining streets. Housing is a mix of terraced and semi‑detached homes set around small greens and play areas, and buses connect both neighbourhoods to Crawley town centre and the mainline station.

Furnace Green sits immediately north of Maidenbower West and has its own primary school and shopping parade serving everyday needs. The area includes pocket parks and local sports pitches used by community clubs, and a network of residential streets laid out to give direct access to bus routes. Day‑to‑day life here is organised around those local hubs, with most weekday travel straightforward by bus or bike rather than by car.
