The images illustrate the main changes that have taken place before and after modernization.
Overall, a comparison of the two maps reveals that the coal mining site underwent significant transformations with the addition of new amenities such as museum, café and picnic area and reconfiguration and modification of existing ones, with the exception of car park, which have remained intact.
Looking at the information in detail, before redevelopment office could be found on the top left corner of the map, with an adjacent staff changing room. North-west part of the map includes entrance for underground mine for workers and medical room. The south-west side, meanwhile, is dedicated to car park and next to its lorry park. Notably, the top and lower parts were used for waste tip 1 and waste tip 2.
After redevelopment working mine has been completely converted to visitors’ attraction. The Office and staff changing room demolished by museum. The souvenir shop is in the south-west side of the image, which was previously occupied by lorry park and medical room supplanted by café. It is also worth noting that new picnic area has been established and also footpath had been added. Waste tip 1 and waste tip 2 has been knocked down to digger driving track and children’s play area. Additionally, the entrance for underground mine for workers is now devoted to visitors. Finally, the car park remained intact.
