WARD LOCK & Co's Illustrated Guide Book
VENTNOR & THE UNDERCLIFF
![Ventnor esplanade from the pier](wardlock/ventespl.jpg)
This shot would have been taken from the pier - described by the guide as a feat of engineering as storms had demolished the previous two. A challenge to engineers here I think!

Note the houses near the top/centre of the picture. These are now on the cliff edge if not in the Atlantic by now - see the picture on the 'Blackgang' page for a more recent view.
