It was here that Lord Randolph Churchill met Jennie Jerome, during Cowes week 1873. The significance of that event? They were the parents of future British wartime leader Winston Churchill, born in 1874. The building is now owned by the National Trust and let as two holiday cottages, with a view behind us over the central part of The Solent.
