Band 6+: The plans below show the changes to a cottage between 1950 and the present day. Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant.

The plans illustrate the changes that a cottage has had between 1950 to the present day.

Overall, the three plans show that there have been some changes over the years in the distribution of the house. However, part of the building that has had reconstructions is the right part as in 1950 there was a big library but in 1970 it was divided in three but nowadays two of them have been funded.

Moreover, the center of the building has always stayed the same but the function of the different spaces has changed. For example, at first there was a music room at the top which in 1970 was used as a classroom but in the present day it is again used for music. Furthermore, in the middle there has always been a living room except when it was used for teaching in 1970. In addition, at the bottom there has always been a dining room.

And finally, on the left side of the cottage the only space whose function has been completely different over the periods of time is located at the top where in the beginning there was a lounge, then a reception and office to then become a shop. Moreover, in the middle there has always been an entrance and at the bottom a kitchen.
