More about this scene

A view of the Castle taken in the year Brownsea's owner George Cavendish- Bentinck died. He had bought the island in 1870, but by 1887 he had to admit that he could not make the pottery on the far side pay. He chose to live in The Villa, which can be seen in the background, and gave the Castle to his son Frederick as a wedding present.
