The plans show the site of a farm in 1950, and the same site today.

The two maps compare a farm called Beechwood as it was 1950 and it is now. In general, there have been many alterations in the structure of the farm, particularly with the introduction of recreational amenities, such as camping field, shop and holiday cottages, which helped it modernize. It is also evident that some places, especially western side were not subject to change.
In 1950, the Beechwood farm was almost undeveloped, with having only natural facilities. There was a river running from the north-west to the south-east. Rectangular areas for fruit trees, soft fruits, and vegetables were behind the river in the middle of the layout examined, while a road crossed the river was on the northwest side. In the north-east corner, there was a large space for sheep, below which a track running from the east to the west until the road. On the south-east side, barn, farmhouse and an area for chickens were situated.
Over the years, so many modifications have happened, one of which is an establishment of solar panels and camping field instead of sheep`s area. The track has been converted into a small road, whereas barn has been removed near an area for vegetables and minimized in size. Another change is introductions of two parking spaces, one of them is in the east, another one is to the west, next to the road. Below those parking spaces, holiday cottages in the east, and farm shop in the west have been constructed. By contrast, three agricultural places along with river, road, farmhouse and a place for chickens have remained more or less unchanged.
