About

Newport East encompasses the residential and commercial streets immediately east of the river Medina, forming a direct extension of the town centre. The area includes the main bus station and a mix of retail parks, supermarkets, and older terraced housing, serving as a key transport and shopping hub for the island. The landscape is largely urban, sloping gently up from the river.

Parkhurst East is dominated by the extensive, wooded grounds of HMP Isle of Wight, a historic prison complex whose perimeter walls and secure woodlands shape the area's character. Residential development is limited, with the presence of the prison creating a quiet, somewhat secluded atmosphere distinct from the busier Newport streets nearby. The area borders large areas of countryside leading towards the island's central downs.
