The maps illustrate Porth Harbour in 2000 and the changes that have been made to it. Overall, the harbour now has a higher capacity for boats and more facilities.
Starting with 2000, in the far west is Main Road. running from north to south. At the northern end of the road, there are bathrooms and a car park. Moving eastwards from these is mooring for private yachts, a dock for passenger ships, and then a public beach. Further south down Main Road., there is a road that runs from eastwards. The western end has a car park, with berthing for fishermen’s boats to the east of it, and then further eastward is a lifeboat. In the southwest of the map is an unused castle and a public beach.
Regarding changes, in the west, the areas for private yachts and fishing ships have been switched, and an extra dock for passenger boats has been added. Further south, the southernmost car park is now accessed off Main Road., and bathrooms have been added. Moving to the east, a café and some stores were erected. In the southeast, the castle has been converted into a hotel, and the adjacent beach is now restricted to hotel guests.
