Bus terminus, Freshwater Bay ? 1978
Southern Vectis was the principal operator on the island from the 1930s having come under control of the Southern Railway in 1929. By 1978 it was part of the National Bus Company. Bus 673, a Bristol VR with ECW bodywork, is seen in the standard NBC livery of leaf green, and is representative of what was effectively the standard NBC double deck bus of the period. It is parked at the entrance to the Freshwater Bay Golf Club on Southdown Road waiting for its return to Sandown.
This is one of a series of views featuring buses in the 60s, 70s, and 80s. http://www.geograph.org.uk/search.php?i=137652761

Freshwater Bay and Stag Rock
This is the eastern end of the beach at Freshwater Bay. Stag Rock is so named because allegedly a stag jumped onto it from the mainland to escape capture. It does not seem feasible does it? The base of Arch Rock, a second sea stack that collapsed in 1992, can just be seen. The third sea stack, Mermaid Rock, is hidden behind the promontory.

Freshwater: steps on the coast path
The grounds of the house to the right extend right to the edge of the cliff, so the coast path continues by way of these wooden steps onto the beach at Freshwater Bay.
