The last house of Holland Island
The last house of Holland Island, Maryland USA
Once Holland Island was about five miles long.
It was home to a fishing community of 250 to 360 people, with more than 60 homes, a church and other buildings.
But erosion forced the residents to leave, last fleeing in 1922 and for decades now the island has been receding into the bay and only the abandoned home remained.
