To determine how 2 contrasting places at a local scale have had their identities shaped by a range of factors.
Lympstone and Toxteth

5. Other Factors influencing Place Profiles
Past and present connections – places do not exist in total isolation from the rest of the world. Over the time a place has existed it has been connected to other places. These connections can be seen as movements of people or trade for example. And these connections rarely stay the same for very long. Present day connections, such as journeys to work patterns, tend to be clearer to see. However, past connection can be seen in ethnic compositions pf a place’s population, an old building such as disused docks or in street names.
It is important to know that through its connections, a place is (or was) linked to places at different scales e.g. local scale links to places close, such as where students go to school or where people purchase everyday goods and services.
Regional connections can include journey’s to work or using a specialist health service in a very large hospital.
Beyond that, connections can be made with places nationally and internationally e.g. holidays abroad; food and clothing imported from abroad; news from around the country or world.
Scale is an important concept. You should try to analyse connections in terms of scale at which they operate.
