The maps illustrate the significant development of the countryside in Ryemouth from 1995 to the present.
Overall, it is noteworthy that the new village has become more visitor-friendly, with the addition of recreational areas due to deforestation.
In the initial map, the housing area is located in the northwestern part of the village, where residents can reside, while tourists can stay in a hotel situated in the southeastern part of the map. Next to the hotel, there is a café. The western side of the map features the main road, with shops on the right side and fish markets on the left side. Additionally, a fishing port is located south of the road. Natural features cover almost a quarter of the village in the southeastern area, which is divided into two parts: the upper part contains farmland, while the lower part consists of forest.
In today’s layout of the village, there are improved living standards, with an increase in houses and apartment blocks constructed where the fish market once stood. Moreover, a car park has been built behind the hotel for the convenience of tourists. Furthermore, in place of the forest park and farmland, golf and tennis courts have been constructed.
