context_page_description: West Green is one of the 13 residential neighbourhoods in Crawley, a town and borough in West Sussex, England. Crawley was planned and laid out as a New Town after the Second World War, based on the principle of self-contained neighbourhoods surrounding a town centre of civic and commercial buildings. West Green was the first neighbourhood to be developed, and is one of the smallest and closest to the town centre.
context_section_description: Crawley Hospital was built on a site in West Green Drive between 1959 and 1962. It was extended in the late 1960s and in 1981. It replaced a 1930s building which had in turn succeeded a small cottage hospital at the south end of Crawley High Street. Since the 1990s many services have been moved to East Surrey Hospital in Redhill, and Crawley Hospital now has "sub-acute" status and has 143 beds. Crawley's ambulance station was moved to playing fields off Ifield Avenue by the early 1980s from its former town-centre location. Crawley fire station, headquarters of the Crawley and Mid Sussex District Team of West Sussex Fire and Rescue Service, is on the same road.  The station has five vehicle bays with three standard water tenders, a heavy rescue tender and a four-wheel drive appliance.  It received 1,390 calls in the 2009–10 reporting year.
  The town's main cemetery, which existed before the New town was planned, is in the far southwest corner of West Green, between the bypass and the railway line.
