Arthur W. Hoyt's finely drawn plan that the state government asked him to make shows the growth of the town. The growth of the communities of Mill Village, Wapping Village, Bloody Brook Village (now called South Deerfield), and Cheapside Village shows the growth of the town's population outside of the first settlement of Deerfield. More roads, the building of bridges to replace ferries, and a bigger number of schools, academies, and meetinghouses shows more services for town people.
