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:

  1. "Lake" where there is no water.
  2. The "Needles" you cannot thread.
  3. "Ryde" where you walk.
  4. "Cowes" you cannot milk.
  5. "Freshwater" you cannot drink.
  6. "Newport" you cannot bottle.
  7. "Winkle street" where there are no Winkles.
  8. "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.
