Lake, Isle of Wight
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Lake is a village and civil parish on the Isle of Wight, England.
It is one of the 'Wonders of the Isle of Wight' that are:
- "Lake" where there is no water.
- The "Needles" you cannot thread.
- "Ryde" where you walk.
- "Cowes" you cannot milk.
- "Freshwater" you cannot drink.
- "Newport" you cannot bottle.
- "Winkle street" where there are no Winkles.
- "Newtown" which is very old.
Having opened in 1987, Lake railway station was the newest on the island until the construction of a station at Smallbrook Junction in 1994.
