You're right. Zooming in, this appears to be a pick-up/waiting point with many posters/price boards and passengers boarding.

In 1937, a stone building was erected here as a church/village hall. This was the year of the Coronation at which my late grandfather (Frank Jacobs) represented The Isle of Wight Rifles.

So they met on the buses? I guess the bus garage isn't there now.

A leaky,wooden building called "The Bungalow", which at various times up to the mid-fifties was occupied by my parents (Green) and grandparents (Jacobs). Demolished in late-fifties?

Now a bungalow, this was at one time a cafe run by a family with the name of Lightowler. Is it a coincidence that the name is the same as the surviving 2nd Officer of The titanic?
