The Vanishing Cottage of Islewight
Sandy Lane, Newport
Sandy Lane in Newport, Islewight, holds a mystery that has left one man baffled for years. A lad cycling down the lane recalled seeing a picturesque farmhouse with a pond just in front of it, a sight that has stayed with him since circa 1951 or 1952. Years later, the now grown man tried to find the dwelling but could find no evidence the property or pond ever existed. This environmental manifestation has all the hallmarks of a classic ghostly encounter, leaving us to wonder if the witness truly did see a property that has since vanished into thin air.
