    Highcliffe Facts – Did you know…

    1. Slop Pond
      The town’s footprint was created by the Victorians building new houses with views out towards the Isle of Wight. The original settlement dates back hundreds of years and was named ‘Slop Pond’. It later became ‘Newtown’ before being rebranded once again as ‘Highcliffe’.
    2. Smuggler’s Bay
      Slop Pond’s villagers were mostly farm hands and fisherman who supplemented meagre incomes by poaching and smuggling. The low beach was perfect for landing boats and high cliffs the ideal look out.
    3. Castle
      Open to the public, Highcliffe Castle hosts a variety of events throughout the year. It was constructed by Britain’s French Ambassador, Lord Rothesay, after the fall of Napoleon, much of the carved stonework was taken from a French Benedictine monastery.
    4. Mr Selfridge
      The Castle was later owned by Harry Selfridge. The American entrepreneur and founder of Selfridges lived at the castle with his family for 6 years from 1916.
    5. Kaiser Bill
      One of the castle’s most notable residents was Kaiser Wilhelm II, the last Emperor of Germany.
    6. Witchcraft
      Another resident was Gerald Gardener. The father of modern paganism and witchcraft, Gardener joined a coven in the town, that hid its activities by claiming to be a theatre group.
    7. Holy Rollers
      The theatre group believed one of their props was the Holy Grail. In 1939 they very publicly predicted Britain wouldn’t go to war with Germany. The following day, Britain declared war on Germany.

    About

    Quiet, sleepy little seaside town where nothing much happens…? You may think again. It has undergone several name changes, been home to smugglers and poachers, been home to emperors, millionaires and the father of witchcraft and paganism.

    Leisure

    There is a Food & Arts Festival held every June if you’re feeling arty (or hungry). Other local events and groups you might want to get involved in if you’re moving to Highcliffe include a beach clean group, a sailing club, bowling club, jazz band and monthly art group.

    There is a golf club or if you prefer your walks without hitting a golf ball you can enjoy the Chewton Bunny Nature Reserve.
