This study sought to comprehend the area’s context of Senri New-Town by analyzing the relationship between the physical and socio-cultural environment before and after development. Before the development of the New-town, the irrigation system was determined by landform, location of ponds and field watering area. This irrigation system was categorized into three types according to the hierarchy of ponds, primarily maintained by residents. Following the new-town development, the old significant irrigation system disappeared. The study proffers the necessity of Senri Town’s spatial reorganization by connecting it with the agricultural resources of the old village.
