The given maps depict the development of Walton Museum between 2008 and 2012. Massive changes took place in just four years. In 2008, the South wing had two storeys with a path on the west of it. On the first floor, there was a special exhibition room, a shop and a cloakroom. The entrance and reception were on the second floor. Stairs were there between the shop and the cloakroom. Next to reception
was a reading room. By the year 2012, this building had four storeys with a lift from the first floor to the top floor. Children’s play area was there in place of the cloakroom, which was moved to the reception. On the second floor, a self-service café was opened towards the eastern side of the lift above the reading room. On the west of the lift, above the reception and cloakroom, a restaurant was constructed. Another exhibition room was built on the topmost floor above the café. Above the special exhibition room, an entrance hall was made, which had a terrace above it.
Overall, except for the special exhibition room and the shop, the rest of the South Wing saw a major transformation.
