Welcome to Wootton Bridge
CLICK FOR 2021 CENSUS DATAIntroduction
Wootton Bridge is situated on the north coast of the Isle of Wight. The village is located amidst beautiful countryside, some of which bears Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty or Site of Special Scientific Interest designations. The lovely Wootton Creek and Millpond provides a natural setting to the village, the Creek being popular with yachtsmen and boaters. The Millpond is home to herons, egrets and kingfishers, with the surrounding countryside having red squirrels, foxes, badgers and dormice. The village has a mixture of modern and Victorian buildings including the 11th century Parish Church of St. Edmunds, and The Sloop Inn in Mill Square. Also of interest are the Isle of Wight Steam Railway and The Butterfly and Fountain World, situated just outside the village. For the walkers and ramblers there are many walks both within and around the village, including our own Heritage Trail. Firestone Copse has picnic sites and walks, with views across the Millpond.
