The map below depicts the changes that occurred in a village called Ryemouth over the past 29 years. There were several noticeable changes, including the removal of the fishing port, the introduction of new sports facilities and increases in the number of
houses
being built. In 1995, to the west of the village, there were several semi-detached
houses
along the
road
. Along
this
road
and turning left, there were more residential
houses
built. On the other side of
this
road
, there is a relatively large farmland which faces the forest park. To the south of the village, there is the fishing port which is located close to the fish market. Turning to the current map, it is evident that the fishing port has been demolished.
Furthermore
, the fish market is replaced by a block of apartments. Having been converted into a gold course, the farmland has now gone,
while
the forest park has been removed to make way for tennis courts.
Although
the old
houses
remain, new
houses
have been built along the same
road
.
