The three maps depict the differences in Willington town between 1780, 1860, and 2000. Overall, there have been many changes in the town’s infrastructure to make it suitable for its purpose. Therefore, the number of villagers increased over the period, and more roads were added to aid transportation for people in this area.
Firstly, the number of villagers’ homes increased from 1780, 1860, and 2000 with 100 homes, 200 homes, and 500 homes, respectively. The number of farms in town decreased from 1780 to 1860, and they completely disappeared by 2000. In addition, a bridge was added in the middle of the river to allow people to reach the other side. It can easily be seen that the river remained unchanged for a long period. Next, a sports field and school were built in the southeast, replacing the wooded space in 2000, due to learning and health care having become essential. The woods gradually decreased over the period.
For sure, a road was constructed from the houses to the school, allowing students to get to their education. A wetland for birds was found at the river’s end in the southwest. The town has been wisely modernized to become a complete-service area.
