No Public Right of Way

LR-BembridgeEmbankment-Study-2-2 - Well according to the Road Traffic Act 1968 there might not be, but don't forget the Right to Roam or is that swim.
To the right is embankment across Brading Haven In 1864, the Bembridge Railway, Tramway and Pier Act was passed by Parliament, authorising the construction of land-reclamation works and the building of a pier that trains from Brading use to trundle along and then return from the Bembridge terminus (used to have it's own turn table to) The various railway companies use to bring new rolling stock into Bembridge.
Once the line closed it was turned into a Toll road and then accepted by the IWCC as another access into Bembridge.
No Public Right of way makes me smile the land underneath the water has been drain for years, even as early as 1620. Citation

3 image panorama there is an eight version, but just much in someways. Slightly disappointed with the cloud reflections, but quite liked the composition, but then that's my opinion, what's yours
