The maps illustrate Porth Harbour in the year 2000 and highlight the changes that have since been made. Overall, the harbour now has a higher capacity for boats and more facilities.
Starting with the layout in 2000, Main Road runs from north to south along the far western side. At the northern end of the road, there are bathrooms and a car park. Moving eastward from these facilities, one can find moorings for private yachts, a dock for passenger ships, and then a public beach. Further south along Main Road, there is a road that branches off to the east. The western end of this road features a car park, with berthing spaces for fishing boats located to its east. Continuing eastward, there is a lifeboat station. In the southwest corner of the map, an unused castle sits near the public beach.
In terms of changes, the areas designated for private yachts and fishing boats have been switched in the west, and an additional dock for passenger boats has been added. Further south, the southernmost car park is now accessible via Main Road, and new bathrooms have been installed. To the east, a café and several stores have been constructed. In the southeast, the castle has been converted into a hotel, and the adjacent beach is now restricted to hotel guests.
