Geotourism and Geoconservation on the Isle of Wight, UK: Balancing Science with Commerce
Carpenter: Rocky start of Dinosaur National Monument… Geoconservation Research Original Article Geotourism and Geoconservation on the Isle of Wight, UK: Balancing Science with Commerce Martin I. Simpson Lansdowne, Military Rd, Chale, Isle of Wight, PO38 2HH, UK. Abstract The Isle of Wight has a rich and varied geological heritage which attracts scientists, tourists and fossil collectors, both private and commercial. Each party has a role to play in geoconservation and geotourism, but a policy on the long term curation of scientifically important specimens is essential to prevent future conflicts. A new code of conduct is recommended, based on the one adopted on the Jurassic Coast of Dorset. I have spent over 40 years living on the Island and working in the tourist industry running geology field-trips for both academics and tourists, and managing one of the longest running geological gift shops. I see the geological heritage and fossil sites as valuable geotourism assets, and envisage no problems with respect to the scientifically important material provided that a clear collecting policy is adopted, and the local museum generates funding to ensure that significant finds remain on the Island. A positive attitude is recommended in view of past experiences. Corresponding Author: Martin I. Simpson Lansdowne, Military Rd, Chale, Isle of Wight, PO38 2HH, UK.

Introduction with few formations absent, probably one of the best successions of this type in Europe (Fig 1c).Once a larger landmass joined to the mainland The Isle of Wight is a small, vaguely lozenge-shaped island situated as recently as 9000 years ago, what remains as 'Wight Island' or 'Vecta just off the central south coast of England, about 113 km south west of Insula' is eroding away at a rate of one metre per year in places (Munt London (Fig 1a, 1b), renowned for its balmy climate and golden, sandy 2016), but this erosion has produced spectacular scenery and iconic beaches.

Thomas Rowlandson
Page from Victorian publication on Rowlandson Rowlandson’s first documented tour of the Isle of Wight was made in 1784. Travelling with his friend, Henry Wigstead, they crossed the Solent from Lymington to Yarmouth and returned via Cowes to Portsmouth. This reprint of Rowlandson’s paintings from the 1784 tour was made circa 1891. This late Victorian publication shows the lasting appeal of Rowlandson’s work. Many of his drawings have been reprinted over the years, promoting the idea of the attractiveness of the Isle of Wight for a leisurely tour. Six miles from Yarmouth - Alum Bay, the famous and brilliant coloured sands running down the rocks forms the most beautiful effects. A general view of the Isle of Wight, looking from the extreme western point. Cowes harbour, in the Isle of Wight (detail). Text from the print Yarmouth afforded our artist another subject for his study. Alum Bay, six miles distant, was found no less attractive, & the effects of it’s coloured sands suggested a picture. Among the rocks there, a picnic was enjoyed by the party, on the tableland, at the summit of a boulder, 30 feet high, the travellers “spread their tablecloth & dined on pigeon pie etc”. Thereby refreshed, Rowlandson went to work with renewed energy, and from the extreme western point, produced a “general View of the Isle of Wight”, this excursion was fruitful in drawings: we have a panorama of “The Needles”; another version – “The Needles Rocks”, from the sea, “Saint Christopher’s Rock; a stupendous white cliff, said to be 500 feet perpendicular to the sea” (wrote the artist), Freshwater Bay”, & a separate study “Rocks near Freshwater”.

We were attending the launch of HEAP, an unfortunate acronym, which still makes me think of garden rubbish. However, when the letters are opened up we find The Isle of Wight Historic Environ- ment Action Plan, a title which encompasses the historic landscape of the Island, the environment in which we live today and the future which we are bound to protect. It extends the work already being un- dertaken by the Island Biodiversity Action Plan, a little known but invaluable structure, which has al- ready been at work for ten years. This body brings together the diverse groups, national and local, whose concern is with the habitats and species which are part of our living landscape. The HEAP will do much the same at a local level for the landscape of the Island, the villages, towns, standing monuments which take us from the Stone Age to the present day and, most importantly, the agricultural landscape which is particularly vulnerable to intrusion and sometimes alarming change.

The Isle of Wight in the English Landscape
THE ISLE OF WIGHT IN THE ENGLISH LANDSCAPE: MEDIEVAL AND POST-MEDIEVAL RURAL SETTLEMENT AND LAND USE ON THE ISLE OF WIGHT HELEN VICTORIA BASFORD A study in two volumes Volume 1: Text and References Thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of Bournemouth University for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy January 2013 2 Copyright Statement This copy of the thesis has been supplied on condition that anyone who consults it is understood to recognise that its copyright rests with its author and due acknowledgement must always be made of the use of any material contained in, or derived from, this thesis. 3 4 Helen Victoria Basford The Isle of Wight in the English Landscape: Medieval and Post-Medieval Rural Settlement and Land Use Abstract The thesis is a local-scale study which aims to place the Isle of Wight in the English landscape. It examines the much discussed but problematic concept of ‘islandness’, identifying distinctive insular characteristics and determining their significance but also investigating internal landscape diversity. This is the first detailed academic study of Isle of Wight land use and settlement from the early medieval period to the nineteenth century and is fully referenced to national frameworks. The thesis utilises documentary, cartographic and archaeological evidence. It employs the techniques of historic landscape characterisation (HLC), using synoptic maps created by the author and others as tools of graphic analysis. An analysis of the Isle of Wight’s physical character and cultural roots is followed by an investigation of problems and questions associated with models of settlement and land use at various scales.
