Abstract
To create a community rather than just to build streets of houses, shops and workplaces has long been the ambition of many people. In the United Kingdom we have the industrial village, the garden city and the post-Second World War building of new towns. All these illustrate in their own particular way attempts to satisfy that ambition. Much has been written about new towns and many readers will be familiar with at least one. Most of them are worthy of detailed study.
