St Aubin on the Hill

St. Aubin (Jèrriais: Saint Aubîn) is a town and port in La Vingtaine du Coin, St. Brelade in Jersey, the largest of the Channel Islands. It is located on the western end of St. Aubin's Bay, on the south coast of the island, opening out into the Gulf of Saint-Malo. St. Aubin was originally a fishing village and the historic economic centre of the island. The Jersey Railway historically terminated in the town, at what is now the parish hall. The Railway Walk, a trail following the route of the former Jersey Railway to La Corbière, starts from St Aubin. The town is the civil administrative centre for the parish of St. Brelade; however, ecclesiastically, the parish church is located in St. Brelade's Bay. It retains a much more historic character than St. Helier, whose architecture has changed as the centre of Jersey's finance industry.

St Aubin railway station, also known as St Aubins was a railway station in Saint Aubin, a port in Jersey in the Channel Islands. Opened in 1870 by the Jersey Railway, it was in passenger operation until the line closed in 1936.

La Cotte de St Brelade is an archaeological site preserving a rich record of Middle Palaeolithic activity and Ice Age faunal remains. It is located in the parish of Saint Brélade, Jersey on the south west corner of the island. The place-name element Cotte means "cave" in Jèrriais, though the site may once have been known as La Grotte à la Fée (The Cave of the Fairies). The site was discovered in 1881 and has been investigated as part of several phases of excavation between 1910 and the present day. It is one of the richest Middle Palaeolithic sites in Europe and represents the most extensive sequence of Middle to Late Pleistocene Palaeolithic activity in north-west Europe. It is important for preserving a long history of repeated use of the site as a home base, two enigmatic Neanderthal bone structures and Pleistocene human fossils, which are extremely rare in this region. It occupies a granite headland containing two deep ravines which are part of collapsed sea cave system. It originally preserved over 40m of deposits preserving as many as 13 separate episodes of occupation by Neanderthal groups. These deposits may extend as far back as 250,000 years ago and also preserve Middle Palaeolithic archaeology younger than 48,000 years ago. This time span includes two previous global warm stages (inter-glacials) as well as two long cold stages; consequently the site provides a record for many different phases of environmental change from the fully temperate to extremely cold. For much of this time sea level was lower than it is now and the site would have sat within part of wider La Mancheland encompassing the other Channel Islands and with complete connection to present day France and La Cotte would have been a prominent landmark. During each warm stage, including the current Holocene one, sea level rise would have flooded the landscape, separating first Guernsey and the other Channel Islands, then Jersey and finally the Écréhous from the mainland. The site is owned by the Société Jersiaise. It is managed by Jersey Heritage who, since 2014, have led a programme of engineering works and associated archaeological excavations aimed at preserving, stabilising and investigating the site. In 2022 the then Prince Charles, who had excavated at La Cotte de St Brelade as a student in 1968, became patron of the project to protect the site.

The 1938 Jersey Airport disaster occurred at 10:50am on Friday 4 November 1938 when the Jersey Airways de Havilland D.H.86 airliner St Catherine's Bay (G-ACZN) crashed in the parish of Saint Brelade, 500 yards east of Jersey Airport, killing the pilot and all twelve passengers on board, as well as farm hand Edmund Le Cornu, who was working on the ground. In terms of loss of life, it was the worst crash of a rigid aircraft on British territory to date and the second-worst overall crash of a British rigid aircraft after the crash of an Imperial Airways airliner in Belgium in 1933 (in which 15 people died). The airliner had just taken off from Jersey en route to Southampton. The sky was overcast, with a cloud base of 120–150 feet. The aircraft had been fully inspected and was not carrying a full load. The Air Ministry investigation concluded that the accident was due to pilot error. The pilot had made a climbing turn into the clouds and inadvertently allowed the aircraft to sideslip when he was still too close to the ground to avert disaster. The aircraft had exploded and several bodies had been thrown up to 40 feet away. Among the dead were the daughter, son-in-law and baby granddaughter of surveyor and aerial archaeology pioneer G. A. Beazeley.

Quetivel Mill is a working watermill in Saint Peter, Jersey. Its history can be traced to 1309 and the current building dates from the 18th century. It is situated near to the Jersey War Tunnels and upstream from Tesson Mill. Quetivel and Tesson are both in the care of the National Trust for Jersey. The mill was derelict by 1934 but was brought back into use during the German occupation of the Channel Islands. It was restored again from 1971 to 1979 and the restoration received a commendation from the Civic Trust in 1978. A new water wheel was fitted in 2015. The mill is open to the public and its operation is occasionally demonstrated, producing flour for sale, but it is not in continuous production.

La Tour de Vinde (aka Noirmont Tower) is a Martello tower that the British erected between 1808 and 1810 to command the approaches to St Aubin's Bay, Jersey. The tower stands at the foot of the cliffs of Noirmont Point, in the Vingtaine de Noirmont in the Parish of Saint Brélade. During the occupation of the Channel Islands in World War II, the Germans erected Battery Lothringen on the top of Noirmont Point. The site of the tower is accessible at low tide by foot, though the tower itself is closed to the public. La Tour de Vinde is painted black and white to serve as a daymark for sailors. Since 1915 it has housed a light that at night flashes every 12 seconds. The tower is currently under the purview of the Harbour & Airport Committee.

St Brelade (Jèrriais and French: Saint Brélade) is one of the twelve parishes of Jersey in the Channel Islands. It is around 7 kilometres (4.3 mi) west of St Helier. Its population was 11,012 as of 2021. The parish's main settlement is St. Aubin. The parish is the second-largest parish by surface area, covering 7,103 vergées (12.78 km2), which is 11% of the total land surface of the island and it occupies the southwestern part of the island. It is the only parish to border only one other parish, St. Peter. The parish is largely a suburban commuter area for St Helier, with expansive low rise residential development, especially in the urban area of Les Quennevais. However, the parish also has a number of notable natural sites, such as the sand dunes of St Ouen's Bay.

A statue of George Carteret stands in Saint Peter, Jersey. A work of the sculptor Laury Dizengremel, it was erected in Saint Peter's Square in 2014, to mark the 350th anniversary of the founding of New Jersey by Carteret. The idea for erecting the statue was conceived by John Refault, Constable of Saint Peter, who secured over £36,000 of public funds towards its erection.
