Ryde is the biggest town on the Isle of Wight, England. Located on the northeastern coast of the island, it has a population of around 30,000 people (2012 estimate).
Until the 19th century, Ryde comprised two villages namely Upper Ryde and Lower Ryde. These were merged into one, and since then has developed into one of the main seaside resorts on the Isle of Wight. The town is blessed with long stretches of sandy beach. Its pier is the fourth longest as well as the oldest in the United Kingdom.
Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
