"Wilkess Cottage", Isle of Wight, 1844. Creator: Unknown

" Wilkess Cottage", Isle of Wight, 1844. The home of British politician, radical and journalist John Wilkes:once the residence of the celebrated, or rather notorious, John Wilkes. It stands contiguous to Sandown Fort, built to command the wide-spreading bay of the same name. The cottage is, indeed, a charming reclusion, and, to Wilkes, must have been a delightful retreat from mob popularity; and would have proved so, especially after the patriot became, to use his own words, " A fire burned out". From " Illustrated London News", 1844, Vol I
