Other settlements, i.e. Dak Ismail Khel, Saleh Khana, Spin Khak, Jaroba, and Cherat Cantonment are neighbouring villages. Chapri is a small village with respect to population in the area. Village Chapri originated from Village Dak Ismail Khel. The people of Chapri are engaged in various businesses, public/private services, and jobs/services abroad.[2]
During British rule Cherat & Chapri was important as a hill cantonment and sanitarium for British troops in what was then the Nowshera Tehsil of the Peshawar District of British India.
Cherat was first used as a sanitarium for troops in 1861 and was used during the hot weather as a health station for the British troops who were quartered in the hot and malarious valley of Peshawar. It was declared a cantonment in 1886. The cantonment commands a view of the whole of the Peshawar valley on one side, and on the other of a portion of the Khwarra valley in Peshawar District, and of Kohat District as far as the Indus.[3]
