Land use changes with distance from the C.B.D

     Consequently the aim of the hypothesis does the land use change with distance from the C.B.D.

Methodology:     The survey took place on Wednesday 17th of April, in St Albans, Beforehand an A3 piece of paper was given to collect our information. R.I.C.E.P.O.T.S is a simple record of the land use. The information which was collected was to record the name of every building walked passed.

     The area which was given to work on was Victoria Street. Our group commenced at the C.B.D of St Albans and worked our way up Victoria Street on the left hand side of the road, then walked down the whole of Victoria Street taking notes on every building passed, the information carried out were two code letters of land use.         The first of the two is a general code letter and the second letter describes the building in more detail, for example “RF”, R stands for residential and F stands for flat so the building “RF” would be a residential flat.

     When finished the rice pots on the left hand side of the road our group crossed and again took notes on every building using the same code as done before.
