The Derelict Cottages on Carnane Hill

Posted on February 6, 2013February 6, 2013 by Peter Killey

High above Douglas the silhouette of these derelict cottages on Carnane Hill can be seen from far and wide around the surrounding areas of Douglas.

Maybe someone can tell us a bit more about their history??

The image was captured on my Nikon S8200 Camera resized and cropped in Adobe Photoshop CS6.

    Hiya,

    Had a great view of those cottages from a flat I used to live in, always fancied going for a walk up to see them close up – until someone told me they’d stayed derelict after a house fire that killed the family living there. Kinda put me off pursuing it, but still interested to see your photos!

    Great site, btw, love it!

      Hi Peter,
      I am visiting the island for a week on 3rd March 2018 and would like to research Carnane Cottages history while I am there. Is there anything you can tell me about this?
      Kind regards,
      Bernadette

    Hi,
    I left the island when I was 18 and the story I was told when i was younger was that there was a tragic fire in the cottages which caused several fatalities- sadly some of them children. no one lived there again. this would have been possibly late 60s
    Regards,
    Bernadette
