The Back of the Wight
|
|
This is the index of a series of pages
showing postcards of the Back of the Wight, the coastal area from Freshwater Bay to Ventnor.
It was renown for
shipwrecks and smuggling in the past. I am also including the inland villages.
A recent card showing the bays,
Compton, Brighstone and Atherfield. The
white cliff is Tennyson Downs with the Needles at the end. Taken from the
viewpoint car park above Blackgang
