The maps illustrate the significant transformations that occurred in the seaside town of Tendif between 1990 and 2010.
Overall, the town witnessed several developments and changes in amenities, with some features being added while others were removed or altered.
In 1990, Tendif was characterized by several key facilities, including the Seaview Hotel, ABC Hotel, an arcade, a shop, a café, and a fast food restaurant. The coastal area featured three distinct beaches—Brown Beach, Grey Beach, and White Beach—alongside a road known as Spraysmount Rd. By 2010, notable changes were evident, particularly in the introduction of new establishments such as a police station and a seafood restaurant, as well as the King Hotel and Family Hotel on South Rd. Additionally, a solar farm was established in the southern region of Tendif, indicating a shift towards renewable energy.
The evolution of the beach landscape was also significant. The original set of three beaches saw the emergence of Diamond Beach, which replaced Grey Beach, thereby altering the town’s coastal identity. Furthermore, the arcade and shop were removed, reducing the variety of commercial facilities available to residents and visitors alike. Notably, while the beaches themselves maintained their presence, both name and location adjustments were made, reflecting an overall transformation in the recreational offerings of the town.
