The census for 1831 in Compton showed there had been significant house building as the number of houses had grown from 49 in 1821 to 88 in 1831. The population though, showed minimal growth.

I considered the alternatives to building and wondered if there had been a boundary change, therefore incorporating properties that were previously been in another parish, though I have not had chance to research this.
