Ned Beg’s Cottage at Cregneash. Love the tiny upstairs window under the thatch and you can also make out the shape of the old porch which has now gone. Ned was a fisherman by trade and was considered a guardian and collector of Manx culture, Ned was also a master of the native tongue, and used to compose many songs and hymns in Manx and English.

Molly Carrooins Cottage – The Butt in Onchan
Molly Carrooins Cottage – The Butt in Onchan Close to the Wetlands and St Peters church in Onchan is Molly Carrooins cottage which was in fact not built as a cottage but as a weaving shed which was converted to a cottage around 1800 when a chimney stack was added to the outside of the gable wall, it then later became the home of the village washerwoman. This tiny-whitewashed cottage, which is probably one of the oldest buildings in the village, has now been fully restored to give a taste of true village tradition, and is sometimes open to the public.
