The first evidence of Ryde is in the 1300’s when records first showed Ryde as ‘La Rye’, it consisted of a sprawling fishing village along the shore and was noted as one of 3 entry points to the Isle of Wight and so it became an easy target. In 1377 Ryde was burnt down during the French raids in the reign of Richard Second.

It is said that in 1656 the population of Ryde (then consisting of Upper and Lower Ryde) was thought to be around 220 people. It wasn’t until the 19th Century that Ryde grew and developed once the gentry followed Queen Victoria to the Island and became a popular Victorian holiday destination.

 

   

 

 

Appley is an area of Ryde located on the long sandy beaches of Ryde and its prominent feature of the folly also described as The Watch Tower. The tower was part of the bigger Appley Towers which was once an English country house. Appley House was formerly occupied by the notorious Smuggler named Boyce, for many years he was engaged in the illicit trade. Having sufficient savings he purchased Appley and retired there. Eventually the house bought by Sir William Hutt in 1872 and then later was demolished but a number if its estate survived including farm stables and a turreted water tower.

Thank you so much for all the support you have given, not only to dad but also to me."
