The Old Cronk y Voddy Church Bell

Posted on July 1, 2015July 3, 2015 by Peter Killey

On the way home yesterday on the Staarvey Road I decided to take a picture of the unusual Bell Tower on the barn of Ballakaighen Farm. I bumped into the owner of the farm a Mr Donald Cannan (as in piccie) this man who is 85 years of age is still a working farmer and an absolute true Manxman and Gentleman. Donald told me the story of the old Cronk y Voddy Church undergoing extensive renovation in the late 70’s and how he went to the auction room and bought the bell which now stands above his barn on the Staarvey Road in Cronk y Voddy, the bell is still used now and again, especially on Tynwald Day which is also the the Cronk y Voddy Sports day and the Cronk y Voddy Eisteddfod. Donald also mentioned that the old bell can be traced back to 1852 which makes this original bell 163 years old (in 2015). Donald told me all sorts of lovely stories about his life and it was an absolute honour to have met him, he even rang the bell for me to prove it still worked.

My Manx Tholtan Search Continues.

Posted on July 1, 2015July 6, 2015 by Peter Killey

A lovely walk up to this beautiful once loved home which is just above Lhergydhoo between the Staarvey Road and Knocksharry on the Peel to Kirk Michael Coast Road. Talking to a nearby farmer about this old house, he can remember this property being occupied circa 1945 by a man named Killey who had the nickname of ‘Killey the Gull’. This Tholtan captures stunning and uninterupted views looking, North, South and to the West of the Island.

The Gruseleck – Dhoon Corner TT 2015

Posted on June 10, 2015 by Peter Killey

The Gruseleck have become synonymous with the Dhoon Corner where they have set up camp during the TT festival since 1981. Sadly one of the members Michael Pfeiffer of the Gruseleck passed away last year but a bench has been placed in his memory in the nearby Arboretum by a neighbour of the Dhoon.
