In 1900 Sawley had about 200 houses, nearly all brick and around 30 thatched. A new area grew up near Sawley Junction station, and around 1900 the Derby Road Land Society laid out Shirley Street, Towle Street, Firs Street and Arnold Avenue. In 1931, 110 of Old Sawley's 230 houses were condemned. Electricity reached the old village in 1932, clearances followed, and the Chantry Close bungalows were finished in 1957. Bothe Hall, from the 1600s, is Grade II listed. Homes from the 1950s may still have rubber cable or unearthed lighting.
