Brading

Village on the Isle of Wight, England, 6 km/4 mi south of Ryde; population (2001) 3,400 (with St Helens). It is situated at the foot of Brading Down (height 124 m/407 ft).

Brading has a 12th-century church (the oldest on the Isle of Wight), and two museums: Osborn–Smith's Wax Museum, which is devoted to the history of the Isle of Wight, and the Lilliput Museum of Antique Dolls and Toys. The remains of a bull-baiting ring and a Roman villa are nearby.
