For the original B3325 on the southern side of the Isle of Wight, see B3325 (Freshwater - Sandown).
The B3325 is a road in Cowes on the Isle of Wight. The road was originally unclassified but had gained its number by 1932, reusing a number from elsewhere on the island.
The road starts at a gyratory near the pier for the passenger ferry to Southampton. Originally it met the A3020 here but now the High Street has been pedestrianised the B3325 ends on an unclassified road. We pass the site of Cowes station (possibly the reason the road was classified in the first place) and head west along Terminus Road out of the town centre.
The road quickly becomes residential as we climb away from the coast. We continue along Park Road and pass a cricket field before reaching a mini-roundabout where we turn left. Now heading south the B3325 runs along Place Road. The road has been straightened as we pass an industrial estate, after which it bears right to skirt the BAE Systems compound. A left-hand bend takes us through Northwood and the road ends at traffic lights on the A3020.
