Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features and make comparison where relevant.
As of present, the industrial
area
of Norbiton lies just outside the town to the west. The
area
is connected to a main straight road stretching west and east, an intersection with a north
path
leading to the industrial site. It consists of 8 factories; 3 surround the central roundabout, and 4 line the connected road leading east, the final factory lying
at the end
of the
path
. The cluster of buildings generally sits adjacent to a
river
up north, with farmland lying just on the other side. The main plan for the future of the
area
is to renovate it from an industrial location to a place more suitable as a commercial &
residential

with housing for residents, and the end of the

will have a school for children,

. Larger space for housing will

be built on the other side of the

will contain 7 plots of land for residential housing spaces, a space for shops, a medical centre, a playground &
