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. |

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? |
