St Helens Fort

St Helens Fort is a sea fort in the Solent close to the Isle of Wight, one of the Palmerston Forts near Portsmouth. It was built between 1867 and 1880 as a result of the Royal Commission to protect the St Helens anchorage. It suffered badly from subsidence which forced many changes to the plans, ending up with two 10-inch 18-ton rifled muzzle loading (RML) guns to landward and one 12.5-inch 38-ton RML gun to seaward. The fort is now in private hands and not open to the public.

Bembridge School

Bembridge School was an independent school in Bembridge on the Isle of Wight founded in 1919 by social reformer and Liberal MP John Howard Whitehouse. Set in over 100 acres on the eastern most tip of the Isle of Wight Bembridge was a public school intended to challenge the traditional concept of education. Many of the radical ideas first employed by Whitehouse, such as teaching of woodwork, American history and modern languages, were not to become mainstream for half a century..

Bembridge railway station

Bembridge was the terminus of the 2¾ mile branch line that connected it to the main line at Brading. On holiday Saturdays the sector table revolved continuously because the station area was too small to contain points. Opened in 1882, when the area contained the Island's main port, it ran with ever-dwindling passengers until 1953. The station is long since demolished and a new development (Harbour Strand) in place.

Located at 50.6928, -1.08944 (Lat. / Lng.), about 1 miles away.

Foreland Fields

Foreland Fields is a part of Bembridge- which claims to be Europe's largest village, consisting of bungalows built in the 1970s, but for a pub called the "Crab and Lobster"- a dining and seafood pub of almost legendary status, overlooking Bembridge ledge, an area formerly popular with shipwrecks and smuggling, but also for crab and lobster fishing. There is a Coastguard Station and remains of a wartime pillbox on the beach.
