No - long since gone - before my time too!
These were up by the Haven and Panorama Road end - most of that was just dunes at the time.
Even when I was little most of the peninsula was lined with houses. 
Haven Court, the crescent shaped block of flats on the right where you turn left to go onto the ferry was there about 1960 - my Grandmother used to live in one of them.

I am researching the following families:
Hurst / Payne - Leicestershire / Warwickshire / Worcestershire
Toon(e) - Leicestershire
Batchelor / Foster - Warwickshire / Northamptonshire
Hardy - Dorset

My web site has the family tree showing.  I am researching primarily the Payne, Hurst, Foster and Batchelor lines in the Midlands.

I'm sorry I missed this thread somehow in all the Christmas excitement and didn't catch up with the Vincent news! We were only honourary Dorset folks really- Gt-gt grannie moved from Wilts around 1870 with her lad.I think there were already lots of Vincents already in Dorset. Smiley One of Grandad's brothers is said to have built some of the roads around Kinson as Bournemouth expanded, so there could be a connection. We'll all have to work on it Wink

Fred ... would by any chance your Vincents come from Tollard Royal or Brinkworth originally ?

Hi, my lot stayed in Homington Wilts through the 18th cent. until widow Vincent went to Dorset in 1870-ish.  I've read on a website that my Wiltshire Vincents originally came down from Leeds around 1500 and settled in Amesbury. They moved to Homington in the 18th cent but I'm pretty sure the Brinkworth/ Garsdon V's are related. I'll see what I can find while it's raining!
