The diagrams illustrate the layout of a small local museum and its surroundings in the years 1957 and 2007, highlighting the structural and functional developments made over the 50-year period.
Overall, the museum underwent significant modernization and expansion, transforming from a simple facility with basic exhibition rooms into a more complex and visitor-oriented place with additional amenities such as a car park, café, and education centre.
In 1957, the museum consisted of three main internal rooms: the local history room, a national history exhibition, and a store-room. The building was surrounded by a garden on the north and west sides, with an entrance hall leading from the curved path connected to the road.
By 2007, the structure had expanded considerably. The store-room was replaced with a café, and new sections including a shop, reception, and education centre were added. The national history exhibition space was removed, and special exhibitions took its place alongside the local history room. Additionally, the entrance was moved directly in line with the road, leading to a reception area. A large car park was also constructed on the east side, and although some of the garden area remained in the northwest, it was significantly reduced to accommodate the new facilities.
