In 1870-72, John Marius Wilson's Imperial Gazetteer of England and Wales described Totland like this:
TOTLANDS BAY, a bay in the W of the Isle of Wight; separated, on the NE, from Colwell bay, by a small headland; extending 1½ mile south-westward to Hatherwood-Point; and overhung, on the S, by cliffs ascending to Headen hill 397 feet high.
