Although small, Hayling Island has a rich and diverse history, with industries such as salt production, brick making and oyster fishing sustaining its population through the ages. In this book, an interesting text detailing a brief history of Hayling Island by an unknown author has been transcribed and edited to accompany a collection of photographs, etchings and sketches dating from 1820 to 1967. The original images were kindly loaned by residents of the island in the 1960s to copy in order to make a photographic record of the Island. The only complete set still in existence appears to be that owned by the author of this book. This publication now makes the collection available for all to enjoy.

John Rowlands resided on Hayling Island from 1958 to 1971, after marrying a teacher at Hayling School. While living on Hayling, he developed a keen interest in photography, and in the 1960s had his work exhibited in several UK-based International Exhibitions. John has published over 50 papers on marine corrosion research in the scientific press. This will be his first book about the history of the island he is very fond of. He currently lives in Dorset.
