Posted on by Peter Killey

Looking towards Maughold Head from Reayrt Chalse (Charlie’s View) at Ballafayle. These two bronze sculptured Ravens are erected high above Ballafayle in memory of the late Sir Charles Kerruish (1917 – 2003). Sir Charles was a well known politician and former Speaker of the House of Keys. What a beautiful and peaceful place this is to visit.
