Overall, the port has undergone a significant development marked by the introduction of numerous amenities and the renovation of others. In 2000, the harbour was joinable from 2 entrances starting from the main road, which is located alongside the western edge of the map. However, another entrance has been settled in the recent plan.

Furthermore, the marina and its private yachts have taken a larger area in front of the new toilets whilst the fishing boats were permuted to the initial marina’s space in the 2000 port’s feature. Alongside the northern entry of the port, new docks and passenger ferries, located before arriving at the public beach, were erected.

The table chart illustrates the number employee and manufacturers in both England and Wales from 1851 to 1901. Overall, the number of employees was dwindling whilst factories' numbers stayed roughly the same over the fifty-year period. Looking in closer detail to the table, it can be highlighted that the number of employees in 1851 was worth 477 100 for a total of 225 factories with a majority of males. A decade later, the number of factories jumped slightly to 227 with a noticeable decrease of employees, mainly composed of females, who represented 160 000 workers versus 131780 male workers. In 1871, the number of manufacturing facilities lifted overwhelmingly up, to nearly 3 times higher, with a steady decline in the employees’ number. However, men are this time more represented in the workers. This trend will continue until 1891, when the number of factories moved down from 721 in 1881 to 625 one decade later. With fewer workers and more males than females, the number of factories reached the point of 600 factories in 1901, involving a bottom of 61 000, concerning the total employee number. To conclude, we can say with confidence that throughout the second part of the 19th century, the number of factories increased with a significant decrease in the number of workers, no matter whether they were males or females.
