Above Ballafayle in Maughold lies this Quakers burial ground. The burial ground is alongside the narrow road through Ballajora, the plaque on the entrance to the site states that William Callow gave the piece of ground as a burial place for Quakers, and he was buried here in 1676. The inscription on his headstone reads; William Callow of Ballafayle 1629 – 1676 suffered long persecution frequent imprisonment and finally banishment from his native Island for his faith.
