- A sweet film promoting Shanklin and Sandown on the Isle of Wight as holiday resorts from the middle 1960s. This includes footage of a clown creepy carnival, but also the basic sands of this beautiful place...the IOW...a very pretty place.
I lived in a house just back from the lift at Shanklin,...the Sixties was a wonderful time....wish I could go back in time.
The best place in the world when I was a small boy
Just spent another fantastic week at the Harrow Lodge hotel in Shanklin. GR8 weather, GR8 service. And we'll be back next year. It's about time they tidied Sandown sea front up, it's a right eyesore.
Such a shame how people let the place decline like it has. It could again be a very attractive location.
Superb. Thank you for sharing
Spent a good few holidays there in the 60's......
1965
Sandown is now mostly a dump, so sad.
8:18 and 8:34 if you're trying to solve a mystery.
Still a beautiful island in many ways but the council needs replacing with people that care and can make a difference. the number of burnt out hotels etc is horrendous. Even more horrendous is the 170 quid it now costs to get over there with your car and ridiculously high parking charges. we went to the needles and had to pay 6 quid to park - half of it was closed and we were there less than an hour. Shame because it really has everything when it comes to scenery.
re the cost - you can fly 2 people from east midlands airport to tenerife for the same price as the car ferry with 2 on board. it's about 4 miles portsmouth to fishbourne - 1800 from east midlands to tenerife.
Sadly now overcrowded and in decline.... BRING BACK THE SIXTIES
A town cryer would not make little girls kiss him anymore 🙈
The number of inconsiderate men smoking pipes in public in those days is astonishing should have been banned years before it actually was
