Writing-AC-Task-1 (Maps)

Task - 1

The two maps below show the changes in the town of Denham from 1986 to the present day. 


Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features and make comparisons where relevant.






Sample Answer

The maps illustrate the main changes which have taken place in the town of Denham from 1986 to the present moment.

Overall, the town has most notably shown an increase in housing development, which indicates a higher population and a move away from agriculture and farming.

One change that stands out is that there has been a significant redevelopment over the whole period. To the east of the river stoke, housing now dominates the area of what was once farmland. In 1986 there were shops and just a handful of residential properties. Now there are neither shops nor farmland left, although the post office is still there. The bridge over the river stoke still stands as it did in 1986.

Another noticeable change is that more roads have been built around the housing complex. Additionally, the gardens that were in front of the large house in 1986, have been removed and the house has been expanded and converted into a retirement home. The primary school still stands and has been extended in the decades since.
