(5 images in this post) A trip out with the Drone to Keeill Kickle (St Cecilia), or St Patrick’s Chapel Jurby (with the new St. Patricks Church in the background) and then over to the sandy cliffs near to RAF Jurby Head. Please note this Keeill is on private land and when I walked there last year and before that I obtained full permission from the farmer/land owner.
