Cowes
Cowes is an English seaport community and also civil parish on the Island of Wight. Cowes is located on the west bank of the tidewater of the River Medina, facing the smaller sized town of East Cowes on the east financial institution. The two communities are connected by the Cowes Drifting Bridge, a chain ferry. The population was 9,663 in the 2001 census, which increased during the regatta in very early August. The population at the 2011 census was 10,405. Charles Godfrey Leland's 19th century verses define the communities poetically as "Both fantastic Cowes that in loud thunder roar/This on the eastern, that the western shore". Cowes has been seen as a residence for worldwide luxury yacht auto racing considering that the beginning of the Royal Yacht Squadron in 1815. It offers its name to the world's oldest regular regatta, Cowes Week, which happens each year in the initial week of August. Later, powerboat races are held. Much of the town's architecture is still greatly affected by the design of luxuriant structure that Prince Albert popularised.
