A few Manx Tholtans from the Air

Posted on July 22, 2023 by Peter Killey

(7 images in this post) A few Isle of Man Tholtans from the Drone. First 4 images taken from the Staarvey Road, talking many years ago to nearby farmer (the late Donald Cannan), he can remember this property being occupied circa 1945 by a man named Killey who had the nickname of ‘Killey the Gull’. Last 3 images are of an unknown Tholtan at Upper Lhergydhoo which neighbours the previous property. Please let me know if you have any further info about these lovely old once loved homes.

Kirk Michael Church Graveyard Tour

Posted on June 13, 2023 by Peter Killey

An absolute fascinating Graveyard Tour of Kirk Michael Church last night conducted by Mike Clague of Michael Heritage Trust (approximately 30 peeps attended). So many Bishops buried here and so many interesting and famous stories attached to many graves. These three headstones caught my eye as they are part of the Kelly Family also knows as Kelly Brothers, Builders of Kirk Michael, with very appropriate headstones that represent roof pitches and roof tiles. Thanks you Mike Clague you are such a wealth of information.

Glion Kiark “Glen of the Grouse”

Posted on October 4, 2022October 5, 2022 by Peter Killey

(4 images in this post) Glion Kiark “Glen of the Grouse” This is the site of an old slate quarry workings at the foot of Sartfell Mountain, this building is clearly visible when looking approximately South-East from the TT Course half-way up Barregarrow Hill coming out of Kirk Michael. This quarry originally employed about twenty quarrymen, many of whom were Welsh, who came over to the Island following the closures of quarries in their homeland. It closed in about 1874 due to the poor quality of the slate and the buildings subsequently fell into disrepair. The ruins are those of the blacksmiths shop, stables, a pay office and accommodation for the men. The belfry at the end of building deceptively gives it the appearance of an old church. In fact, the bell which it once housed was used to signal…

Spooyt Vane Waterfall & Chapel

Posted on February 26, 2022 by Peter Killey

(7 images in this post). A lovely walk today down to Spooyt Vane Waterfall. This is one of the highest waterfalls on the Isle of Man and is situated in a very isolated but tranquil setting in Glen Mooar, the name means ‘white spout’. To get to the waterfall I passed Spooyt Vane Chapel, this quaint chapel is reputed to be the smallest chapel on the Island, it was built as a school and later used as an Anglican mission, it is now sadly disused and in private ownership. Then onto ‘The Monks Road‘ this ancient road is at least 1500 years old and once linked up all the Island’s 220 keills and then down the glen to this famous waterfall. Thank you to my friend Pheric Curphey for allowing us access onto his land. Feel free to make any…
