The maps below show Pebbleton 20 years ago and now.

Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant.

The given maps detail the town of Pebbleton 20 years in the past and the present day. Looking from an overall perspective, it is readily apparent that the town has become more residential and more accessible for pedestrians.

The most networthy changes to the town relate to the expantion of housing. There are now other houses on the northern end of the narrow peninsula, and the old fort has been replaced with a children's playground (adjacent to a new community center), though the lighthouse remains unchanged. South of the community center is new tennis courts that link with a footpath (as well as the lighthouse lane) and a footbridge that connects with the school (along Coast Road) on the other side of a small river.

The final change is that a former film studio on southwestern tip of the peninsula is presentlu a block of flats. The areas that have remained the same are the main roads, a playing field on the southern shore (alongside the Old Fort Road), and most wooded space around the town.
