Exploring Norris Castle (East Cowes, Isle of Wight, United Kingdom)
This is some film of Norris Castle in East Cowes on the Isle of Wight. The castle was built in 1799 by the architect James Wyatt and sits on an estate of 225 acres. It was purchased over a year ago by a property developer looking to turn it into a luxury hotel. The interior contains an old kitchen with a mechanical spit roast system, two ice houses, a stable, cave art and a wine cellar. The castle will require a lot of work to get it into a luxury hotel standard.

Ray leads the donkey into a giant hamster wheel attached to a winch. As the donkey walks rope winds around the winch lifting a bucket of water from the deep well.

Exploring Abandoned / Derelict House (Newport, Isle of Wight)
Exploring an abandoned derelict house in Newport on the Isle of Wight. There is a tap dripping in the centre of the house that has made the floor rot away and plants start to grow. A little creepy but a really fun place to scramble around and explore.

Places to see in ( Isle of Wight - UK )
The Isle of Wight is a county and the largest and second-most populous island in England. It is located in the English Channel, about 4 miles off the coast of Hampshire, separated by the Solent. Isle of Wight has resorts that have been holiday destinations since Victorian times, and Isle of Wight is known for its mild climate, coastal scenery, and verdant landscape of fields, downland and chines.
The Isle of Wight has been home to the poets Swinburne and Tennyson and to Queen Victoria, who built her much-loved summer residence and final home Osborne House at East Cowes. Isle of Wight has a maritime and industrial tradition including boat building, sail making, the manufacture of flying boats, the hovercraft, and Britain's space rockets. The island hosts annual music festivals including the Isle of Wight Festival, which, in 1970, was the largest rock music event ever held. Isle of Wight has well-conserved wildlife and some of the richest cliffs and quarries for dinosaur fossils in Europe.
The Isle of Wight was owned by a Norman family until 1293 and was earlier a kingdom in its own right. The Isle of Wight has played an important part in the defence of the ports of Southampton and Portsmouth, and been near the front-line of conflicts through the ages, including the Spanish Armada and the Battle of Britain. Rural for most of its history, its Victorian fashionability and the growing affordability of holidays led to significant urban development during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Isle of Wight was part of Hampshire until 1890 when it became its own administrative county, but continued to share the Lord Lieutenant until 1974 when it became a ceremonial county. Apart from a shared police force, there is now no administrative link with Hampshire, although a combined local authority with Portsmouth and Southampton is being considered. Until 1995 the Isle of Wight had a governor.
The quickest public transport link to the mainland is the hovercraft from Ryde to Southsea, while three ferry and two catamaran services cross the Solent to Southampton, Lymington and Portsmouth. The Isle of Wight is situated between the Solent and the English Channel, is roughly rhomboid in shape, and covers an area of 150 sq mi (380 km2). Slightly more than half, mainly in the west, is designated as the Isle of Wight Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The island has 100 sq mi (258 km2) of farmland, 20 sq mi (52 km2) of developed areas, and 57 miles (92 km) of coastline. Its landscapes are diverse, leading to its oft-quoted description as England in miniature.
Main towns in ( Isle of Wight - UK ) are :
Newport is the centrally located county town, with a population of about 25,000 and the island's main shopping area. Located next to the River Medina, Newport Quay was a busy port until the mid-19th century.
Ryde, the largest town with a population of about 30,000, is in the northeast. It is Victorian with the oldest seaside pier in England and miles of sandy and pebble beaches.
Cowes hosts the annual Cowes Week and is an international sailing centre.
East Cowes is famous for Osborne House, Norris Castle and as the home from 1929 to 1964 of Saunders-Roe, the historic aircraft, flying boat, rocket and hovercraft company.
Sandown is a popular seaside resort. It is home to the Isle of Wight Zoo, the Dinosaur Isle geological museum and one of the island's two 18-hole golf courses.
Shanklin, just south of Sandown, attracts tourists with its high summer sunshine levels, sandy beaches, Shanklin Chine and the old village.
Ventnor, built on the steep slopes of St Boniface Down on the south coast of the island, leads down to a picturesque bay that attracts many tourists. Ventnor Haven is a small harbour.
