Notes:
The Isle of Wight, known to the ancient Romans as Vectis, is a county and the largest island of England, located in the English Channel, on average about 3 to 5 mi (5 to 8 km) off the coast of Hampshire, separated from Great Britain (referred to by its residents as "the Mainland") by a strait called the Solent. It has the distinction of being England's smallest county - but for only half of the time. It has been calculated that during high tide, Wight's area is slightly less than that of Rutland, but not during low tide.
Its rich history includes a brief status as an independent kingdom in the 15th century. Until 1995, like Jersey and Guernsey, the island had a Governor.
The Isle of Wight was part of Hampshire, until 1890 when it became an independent administrative county.  Latitude: 50.674908, Longitude: -1.301753
