The two maps illustrate changes to the Station Street from 1960 to the present day.
Taken as a whole, the Station Street has undergone a number of major alterations since 1960.
The most notable change has occurred in the northern part of the area, where several shops have been demolished and replaced by a supermarket. Furthermore, in the top right-hand corner of the map, the fish and chip shop has been removed and turned into a café, while in the top left-hand corner, a previously pharmacy area has been converted into a car park.
Another significant change has been made to the Railway Station. The station has been expanded, and the public telephone booth has been removed to accommodate this. At the same time, the grocery store has been demolished and replaced by a hotel on the same site. However, it is worth noting that the dry cleaner’s shop has remained approximately unchanged during this period.
In conclusion, Station Street has experienced considerable transformations since 1960, with the most significant changes occurring in the northern area.
