St Adamnan’s Church at Christmas

Posted on December 20, 2020December 21, 2021 by Peter Killey

A touch of Christmas at the tiny and beautiful St Adamnan’s Church in Lonan this morning, I reckon this must be one of the smallest churches on the Isle of Man?! I have also added a small video clip at the bottom of this post of St Adamnan’s including the external font and the Celtic Wheel Headed Cross which still stands in it’s original position at the south side of the church. It stands at 1.5m high.

Posted on December 11, 2019 by Peter Killey

St. Adamnan’s Church – Old Kirk Lonan. A few Christmas display images and exterior images today at St. Adamnan’s Church 🇮🇲 This quaint little church in is one of the Islands oldest churches where the walls date back to possibly the 12th century on a site used since perhaps the first Christian missionaries on the Isle of Man. The site is steeped in Manx History and the Celtic Wheel Head Cross that is almost completely covered in interlacing, knot work and plait work designs. This stone dates from the 9th or even the 10th century. (Manx National Heritage catalogued Cross No. 73).

The Wheel Head Cross – Kirk Lonan Old Church

Posted on July 24, 2014August 23, 2014 by Peter Killey

This Post is for Eleanor and Michael Wasley. (Manx National Heritage catalogued Cross No. 73) The most spectacular of all of the crosses in the church yard of St. Adamnan’s, still stands in it’s original position at the south side of the church. It stands at 5 feet high (not over 9 feet as described on many websites!) and more than 3 feet across and has a large equal limbed Celtic wheel head cross that is almost completely covered in interlacing, knot work and plait work designs. This stone dates from the 9th or even the 10th century.

Snaefell Wheel (Lady Evelyn) Laxey Washing Floors

Posted on June 17, 2012 by Peter Killey

This waterwheel which turns on the Washing Floors of Laxey is called the Snaefell Wheel (also known as Lady Evelyn). This wheel was purchased by the Snaefell Mining Company in 1865 until 1910 when the wheel came to the end of its working life. From there, it was sent to the Cornish Mines until the 1950s when there was no longer use of it. Years later Pete Geddes from the Laxey Mines Research Group brought it back home to the Isle of Man, restored it and In 2006, the wheel began turning once more. This image was captured on my Fuji X10 camera resized and cropped in Adobe Photoshop CS5 Feel free to make any comments either on this website by clicking the “Write comment” below or by logging onto my Facebook page www.facebook.com/manxscenes Click on the image for a larger view.
