Rowridge is a tiny hamlet on the Isle of Wight towards the west in an area known as West Wight. It is at the end of a narrow, dead-end lane running for a mile and a quarter off the B3401 out of Carisbrooke heading west.

On a hill here is the Rowridge transmitting station, a 491-foot tall guyed transmitting mast.
