Maps Showing Changes to Felixstone Town IELTS Writing Task 1

It makes it clear that the town suffered significant changes overall. There were initially stores on either side of the high street in 1967. To the east and west of the main drag, respectively, there was some farmland and a golf course. Additionally, a hotel was close by and there were dunes in the southwest area. There was a hotel close by. The town, which has a fish market above it and is surrounded by the sea to the south, has a pier for accessing the water. The town had gone through a few changes by 2001. The stores on the high street's left side are still present, however, the stores on its right side have been replaced by apartments. The farmland was destroyed to make room for a hotel, tennis courts, and a swimming pool. Additionally, a sizable parking lot was created for the outdated hotel close to the dunes and it was refurbished. The southernmost area of the town had been fitted with wind turbines. A beach was also created there, and its easternmost portion had been turned into a private beach. In addition, the marina and fish market have vanished. The cafe and golf course, meanwhile, are unaffected.

The high street, the cafe, and the golf course are unaffected in the interim. Numerous changes may be seen, in particular, when the map is examined more closely. The sports and hotel facilities that were built in the area that was formerly farmland are the first noticeable change. Several wind turbines have also been built on some dunes that were close to the sea in the southwest. The fish market, Southern marina, and Southern pier were all demolished to create room for a private beach in the Southeast corner. And a smaller neighbouring public beach, which is another obvious difference. An outdated hotel in the Felixstone neighbourhood was expanded and rebuilt, and a brand-new parking lot was built right adjacent to the expanded hotel. A modern hotel with a pool and two tennis courts was built in a sizable rural area in the northeastern part of the city. As for the final change, more stores were built on the Western side of the high street. While some new apartments were built as a result of the demolition of a row of stores on the Eastern side.

It is evident from a broad perspective that Felixstone had changed from a port city to a coastal city. Specialising in resort services with the removal of the pier and fish market. And the emergence of new facilities and improved infrastructure serving the demands of recreation, health care, and renewable energy source. The pier, marina, and other elements that came at the expense of yacht services, however, had to be removed in order to increase the sea's swimmable area. A closer examination of the maps reveals that, to the area's north, the number of stores on the high street's right side has dramatically expanded. While all of the stores on the left have been converted to apartments. A largely rural area in the northeastern section was transformed into a contemporary hotel with a swimming pool and two tennis courts. The golf course on the left of the shops stayed unchanged, despite the fact that there were several alterations to the northwest of Felixstone. On the opposite side of the major road, additional improvements had been made. In particular, the marina and pier were destroyed to make room for a public beach. A coffee shop that was in the same place as it had been in 1967 was positioned over the public beach. The tiny hotel was transformed into a hotel with a large space for parking. While there was a significant modification happening to the left of the café. On the spot where the fish market had stood in the southeast corner in 1967, a private beach was constructed. Except for the installation of wind turbines, not much has changed in the southwest.
