Crawley is a large town on the eastern edge of West Sussex. It is situated at the southern end of the M23, the A23 extending beyond Crawley to the south coast at Brighton. Other main routes leading to Crawley include the A23 (from Horely to the north), the A264 from Copthorne (to the east) and the A264 from Horsham (to the west) - which becomes the A2220 as it enters the centre of Crawley. An important aspect of Crawley is its immediate proximity to London Gatwick airport, directly north of the centre of Crawley. This is, of course, a major source of income and jobs for the town and supports many small businesses in this area.
Suburbs of and villages around Crawley include Tilgate, Maidenbower, Three Bridges, Pound Hill, Worth, Black Corner, Tinsley Green, Lowfield Heath, Ifield and Lambs Green.

Use the controls in the top-left of the image above to zoom in or out and to "move" over this part of West Sussex and view the ground as if from a hot air balloon flight in summer. Alternatively, steer with your mouse by holding down the left mouse button and moving your mouse across the scene. The buttons in the top-right of the image above enable you to switch between the aerial view (default), a road-map view, and a combination "hybrid" of the two - that is an aerial view with the road names added over the scene.
