The Sudbury Society was formed in 1973 after a successful campaign to save the Corn Exchange from developers. However, in protecting its ancient centre the town has not shut itself off from modern development. As the town has expanded (to a population in 2004 of 11,800) modern retail and industrial developments have been added on sites close to the centre. The eighteenth and nineteenth century houses near the town centre have been added too by modern developments.
