This is a great website as it has every name and address in the Chalfont and GX area dating back to the 1900's, you can see what shops there was and who lived in your house before you..

Pennington Road not mentioned Steve, Boundary Road mentioned in 1940, and a relation ( The Nash family )  at 51 Lovel Road in 1940 as well.
