IELTS Essay 189: Map of
the Town of Lynnfield

The maps below shows the town of

Lynnfield in 1936 and then later in
2007.
Summarise the information by
selecting and reporting the main
features, and make comparisons
where relevant.
 💡 Answer:

The maps detail changes to a town

called Lynnfield between 1936 and
2007. Looking from an overall
perspective, it is readily apparent that
the town became more residential,
commercial, and accessible at the
expense of natural land, agriculture
and smaller shops.
In 1936, to the northwest and
northeast of the town were several
trees and a river surrounded by
untouched land. By 2007, the number
of trees had declined and the land
around the river is now a residential
area. To the southwest of the town, a
cycling path has become a road for
cars and on the opposite side of the
map a museum and golf course have
replaced government offices and farm
land.
 In terms of the center of the town
itself, there was a post office, sweet
shop and butcher’s in a single row
with a lane separating those
businesses from the flower shop, bank
and library. In 2007, only the bank
(slightly expanded in size), library,
and post office remain the same. The
flower shop has been removed in
favor of a travel agent, there is a
shopping center in the previously
unoccupied space between businesses,
and the sweet shop and butcher’s
have been combined and transformed
into a large supermarket.
