A yacht club, fire station, and library are among the buildings where Isle of Wight residents can go to vote today (Thursday, May 7).
County Hall has unveiled a list of 70 polling stations across the Island which will require an acceptable form of photo ID, such as a passport or photocard driving licence, to cast a ballot at.
They will be open from 7am to 10pm and are allocated to residents based on addresses on the electoral register, according to the Electoral Commission.
Wootton Bridge Community Centre is no longer a polling station, with Church Close Community Centre now listed for Wootton.
