Southview Naturist Estate (The Ghost Town)
A selection of pictures taken from 2008 now I believe of a little trip to Southview Naturist estate between Blackgang and Niton also known locally as The Ghost Town.
I have more photos somewhere stored on a USB Iwill one day get round to uploading and somewhere an old brochure we picked up. If I remember rightly it describes the clubhouse and the lovely panoramic terraces outside reaching down to the beach it's so hard to imagine now everything has slipped and overgrown. The quality of photos is poor in some places it was only a small point and click but gives you and idea of things. Please feel free to add more photos etc to this report
