Rew Street is a village on the Isle of Wight.[1] It is located three kilometres southwest of Cowes in the north of the island.[2] The village lies along the main road between Porchfield and Gurnard (where the 2011 Census population was included) and consists of several farming communities. As a result, many of the houses in the area have been converted from old barns.[3]
