Down town Sandown on the Isle of Wight, (must not get muddled with the affluent mainland Sandown), this is its effulent cousin.Situated as an orbital seaside town just 7 miles from the Islands capital Newport and a mere 3 miles from some of the more up market towns of Bembridge and Seaview. Sandown is in freefall with a weak council and dying tourist trade, shops and hotels struggle to make ends meet, let alone reinvest.For the past 3 weeks Sandown has headed the local rag. (All derisive) Teenage drunken gangs, Arson attacks, Wanton vandalism, no council planning Blah Blah Blah.Bat Babe to the rescue 30X40inches acrylic on box canvas. Clean up those streets.
