Response: The illustration displays the layout of the Porth harbour now and in 2000. Overall, the number of docks has increased to two and the fishing boats area and private yachts area have swapped places. Additionally, another showers and toilets building has been added to the harbour, as well as a complex for cafes and shops and a hotel, which has replaced the disused castle. Regarding the immediate function of the harbour, the space for fishing boats and the marina, which is the area for private yachts, has switched places. Additionally, another dock, where ferries can board passengers, has been integrated into the harbour beside the north public beach. In relation to other facilities, some renovations have been carried out, too. One of them is the construction of another building for showers and toilets along the new marina which is under the fishing boats area in the larger space. Additionally, access to the parking lot beside this new building has moved to Man Road instead of the road that leads to the Lifeboat. Furthermore, next to the Lifeboat, a complex for cafes and shops has been developed. Finally, the former out-of-use castle has been redefined as the new hotel with a private beach, which used to be the south public beach.
