Exploration to find the remains of puckaster village ,isle of wight

[@ryankinneavy9245]

This spot is my favourite place on the island. I used to trap a lot of lobster down here at the low water mark. Now though, it's been swarmed by velvets, undersized brown crag and strap conger. You can see the remains of the old slipway in the vid (around 2:50- 3:20) and the old winch. Super cool!

Why don’t you give some information about this is on the IOW

I don't suppose you ever knew Maurice Bridgeland?

I’m afraid not

[@rancidschannel3206]

Looks like quite a few caves there. Amazing you found a wall and floor. Was that the Kingswells place?

[@gurtsmunta1]

I believe from old photos it was either a boat house or a building linked to fishing

Great, thank you

[@rancidschannel3206]

Bet the Maritime trust would like that..did it get washed away the village? Wonder if anything remains at St Helens further out? Thanks for sharing

Puckaster Cove is near Niton, nowhere near St Helens which is on the other side of the Isle of Wight.
