Haylands

Haylands is an area just to the south of Ryde on the Isle of Wight, off the south coast of England. At the time of the 2021 Census the population etc. of Haylands is listed under Haylands and Swanmore. Located to the east, it is a short walk away from housing estates at Pell and Binstead. It previously comprised three small settlements called Great, Lower and Upper Island, which are older forms of the modern name.

The name probably means 'enclosed pieces of land', from Old English hæg and land.

1559-1560: Hillands

1769: Great, Lower and Upper Islands

1771: Hayland's

1884: Haylands

The settlement consists mainly of a housing development, including some ex-local authority housing, a corner shop in Upton Road, and a primary school. It is not far from Ryde Academy at Pell Lane.

In the centre of Haylands there is a pub called Lake Huron. The pub's name originates from the Lake family, a 19th-century family of brewers who owned several pubs naming them after the Great Lakes of North America, Lake Huron is the only one to have survived.
