Maryland, Brownsea Island
Maryland is a deserted village on Brownsea Island in Poole Harbour, Dorset, England. It was named for the wife of its founder, Colonel William Petrie Waugh.
The village was established in the mid-19th century to house workers for a new pottery industry (Branksea Clay & Pottery Company) on the island. The supposed deposit of high quality china clay proved to be unsuitable for porcelain, and the drainage pipes and chimney pots that were produced were not financially viable. The Waughs were forced into bankruptcy.〔
Maryland's people stayed on the island after the closure of the pottery, farming and working on the estate of the island's new owners; daffodil fields were a particular feature. In 1927, Mrs Mary Bonham-Christie bought the island and closed down much of the employment there; the redundant workers moved to the mainland, and the village was finally abandoned in the same year.〔
In World War II, decoy lights were set nearby to divert German bombers from Poole and Bournemouth, and the village was largely destroyed. The ruins were subsequently demolished.〔
