The diagram illustrates the transformation of a city named Bridgetown between 1700 and 2000.
Looking at 1700, we can see that Bridgetown featured a more rural and simplistic layout, characterized by a market place,castle and farmland, surrounded by woods. The presence of a single road and a bridge over the river showed an unadvanced transportation in Bridgetown by 1700. The town was primarily agricultural, with vast areas of farmland dominating the landscape.
With respect to 2000, there is a dramatic development in Bridgetown. The school and railway line indicates a shift towards greater accessibility and education; the more structured roads, and the construction of a built-up area display increased residential and commercial activity. Although there is a major transformation, some places still remain, the market place and farmland whose proportion has diminished.
Overall, it is clear that Bridgetown, which was a backward area in 1700 , has undergone many changes and has become more and more advanced, with many different buildings in 2000.
