This cottage up at the Point of Ayre is a bit run down, anyone know what it’s past is? I seem to remember someone telling me it used to be a Smithy’s workshop!
*Edit (10.9.14) I have been informed by Mr Eric Corkish who is a Northern Historian that the Cottage was called ‘Goats Cottage’ as the occupants used to herd goats. – Thanks Eric

Is there anyone living there? I wanna rent it!!!! (Oh, dream, Isle of Dream, I may say!) 🙂
There does seem to be a lot of workshop space to the side of the cottage. Would there have been enough trade for a smith in that area?
