Anyone live near/in Bridgehampton on Long Island?

Long shot really, but as title. Anyone live in/near Bridgehampton on Long Island, or go past that way with any sort of regularity?

Paul, I live on LI and work about an hourish away from Bridgehampton. What is it you need from there?

Ah nothing really. When I was Three we almost moved full time to the States (we did move out, but came back (obviously)), I knew we lived/stayed in Long Island but I didn't know where. I found out this weekend it was in Bridgehampton, and wondered if the place/house was still there.

About an hour away.
STi: Bridgehampton, NY



There is an old closed race course slowly being over run by golfers there.
The starting grid, finish line, bridge and first few bends are still intact,
so it is a popular spot for motoring enthusiasts.

Basically if anyone goes down Bridge Lane, could you keep an eye out for a place called (or that was called) "The Barn". We were not there long, but lots of happy memories of there, and Sag Harbour.

Who woulda thought Paul Mullett is a Lon Gilander?
Here is your Golf/Race course and I'm guessing your barn is right around here.

From the photos/pictures we've got, I reckon this is the place: bridge lane, Bridgehampton, NY - Google Maps

I've found it! This is where we stayed on Long Island: Bridgehampton Compound I've got photos of me there as a little lad.

We stayed in Manhattan too, but apart from a police chase we saw, and shopping in China Town, I cant remember much of that.

The Barn.... Oh happy days..

Here's me in NY:

Will keep an eye out for it if I am out that way Paul. The major thing that comes to mind when thinking about Bridgehampton is one of the cross sound ferries to CT runs out of there.

Not quite. The Cross Sound Ferries run from Pt. Jefferson (to Bridgeport, CT) or from Orient Point (to New London, CT).

Not far from Bridgehampton (in North Haven) is the short ferry to Shelter Island.
