I regularly ride around the Isle of Wight once a year, and can recommend both the Military Road and the inland route taken by the "blue and white flags". In the warmer months of the year (April to October), I would suggest going on a weekday, when there is less holiday traffic.

I could see as far as Golden Cap to the west, and very far to the east. The obelisk gives good protection from the sun while you admire the view.

Devil's Chimney will never open again. There has been a massive landslip and even the road to it is closed. A sad loss.

The Grade II listed Yarborough monument was erected in 1849 by public subscription in memory of Charles Anderson Pelham, 2nd Earl of Yarborough. After his sudden death in 1846, the committee of the Squadron proposed a ‘Nautical Monument’ or ‘Sea Mark’ in his memory and contributed £200 towards the cost – the Yarborough Monument was the result. This was originally been erected further to the west on top of the Bembridge Down but was moved to its current position in 1867 to make way for the Bembridge Down Fort There's a cafe across the road with seating - hot and cold drinks, cakes and snacks plus The Culver Haven Inn

After a big land slip in the area, it is believed that the Devil’s Chimney has been destroyed and lost for ever. A very sad loss due to the power of nature!

The Yarborough Monument is a huge memorial to Charles Anderson Pelham. He was the 2nd Earl of Yarborough and said to be very popular among islanders, indeed the obelisk was paid for by public donations. It can be seen for miles around.

Overwhelmingly large and a point you can see from Sandown and even Shanklin

Understand it will be closed for a few months
