  • You're right. Zooming in, this appears to be a pick-up/waiting point with many posters/price boards and passengers boarding.

  • In 1937, a stone building was erected here as a church/village hall. This was the year of the Coronation at which my late grandfather (Frank Jacobs) represented The Isle of Wight Rifles.

  • A leaky,wooden building called "The Bungalow", which at various times up to the mid-fifties was occupied by my parents (Green) and grandparents (Jacobs). Demolished in late-fifties?

  • Now a bungalow, this was at one time a cafe run by a family with the name of Lightowler. Is it a coincidence that the name is the same as the surviving 2nd Officer of The titanic?
