I then start rating each column in my datacollection book." *fter recording down the ratings in my datacollection book; I worked out an a'erage &.5.Ifor the site based on the &.5.I that I='erecorded.$ I walked another 0m to record the ne+t siteand compare it to the pre'ious site for easierrating between deciding whether it is worse orbetter.% I repeated this step until I reached the 1)th

site until ha'e data results of 1) differentplaces.

The &5I was conducted for differentsites along Sheringham 4igh Streetstarting from Station road. I used asystematic method which is e'ery0m and then record the site basedon what it is at the time.I kept using a systematic method topre'ent any anomalies in my dataand keep my results consistent.-urthermore; being precise andreliable is a positi'e of using thesystematic method because itallows you to ha'e similar data.

The data collected abouttourism whether the pedestrianswithin the Sheringham 4ighStreet are a tourist or a resident.This will be a positi'e impact toshow that Sheringham is ahoney pot tourism location. I willcollect this data of a stratifiedsample of e'ery % people and Iwill sur'ey $0 people in threedifferent sites with reasonablepedestrian count.

1 I walked from the 4igh Street Intersection fore'ery 0m with a systematic method until I willreach the car park. I record@count the cars for e'ery 0m in mydata collection book". I went to another car park to check howmany cars were parked at the time.$. I used the counter for e'ery passing cargoing or passing the 4igh Street. I kept myselftime frame for 1 minute$ I repeated this steps abo'e until I ha'e 1)different results of sites in my data collection

books.

It was mainly done on the 4ighstreet and three other differentroads. It shows the parking spacea'ailable at the 4igh Street and thenegati'e impacts of the usage of thecar park; with too many cars at onetime of the day. The results implieswhere the people park their cars;4ow it differs from using a freeparking space or a paid parkingspace such as a car park.It was done on each street and for 1

minute for e'ery car that passed the4igh Street. The parked cars weredi'ided into sections based on theroads they were in. This wasneeded to be able to differ ifresidents or tourists tend to usefree parking space or the secure carparks.
