Whilst a large part of Plympton and Chaddlewood have been the subject of housing and industrial growth since the mid-1960s, the occasional reminder can be found of the origin 'stannary town'- this is the point where the GWR railway crosses George Lane, which used to run from the Ridgeway, through to the Cornwood/Sparkwell road.
