Open every day, 10 am - 4 pm, from Saturday 23 October to Sunday 14 November.

Entry is via the Rotunda, off Ward Avenue, and admission is free.


Opening to the public on Saturday (23 October) for three weeks, the exhibition is, appropriately, being held at Northwood House through the kind permission of the trustees, recently given the challenging task of running the house and beautiful park by the Isle of Wight Council.

"We want this exhibition to serve as a reminder to Isle of Wight people just how important it is that this house and park are preserved for future generations, despite the present economic difficulties," said Cowes Heritage chairman John Groves. "Hopefully our various displays will shed light on the many interesting aspects of the story of the house and park, and the huge role the Ward family played in the life of the Island in bygone times."
