(7 images in this post) A walk on the Public Footpath through Ballakilmartin Farm (St. Martin’s Church Farm). So sad to see a once loved home/farm like this.

Crammag Packhorse Bridge – Sulby

Posted on March 7, 2021 by Peter Killey

Love this little packhorse bridge over the Crammag River in Sulby. It is so isolated and I would imagine used by the occupants of the nearby Crammag Tholtans about a mile or so away.

Ballarghey – Foxdale

Posted on July 29, 2019July 29, 2019 by Peter Killey

This lovely old Manx Tholtan is called Ballarghey 🇮🇲 It sits between Higher & Lower Foxdale behind Lhea Kerrow Farm, I believe it was once lived in by Philip Cain and his family but I am unsure how long ago since it was last inhabited! Access was with kind permission from the land owner. This image has been added to my Manx Tholtans Page which you can access by clicking the above link.

Park Llewellyn & Cornaa Farm Tholtans

Posted on July 23, 2019 by Peter Killey

3 images of Manx Tholtans, image 1 and 2 are Park Llewellyn. This beautiful once loved Manx Tholtan at Park Llewellyn sits on the foot of the slopes of North Barrule. Quite difficult to imagine how tough life in this isolated home might have been. But believe me the view out the front door overlooking Cornaa Valley with views of the North Laxey Mines nearby might have been some consolation. Without a doubt one of the most beautiful ruins on the entire island 🇮🇲 Image 3 is the nearby Tholtan of Cornaa Farm which I believe was still occupied in the late 70’s, again this beautiful once loved home enjoyed very similar views to the neighbouring Park Llewellyn.

Rowany Golf Course Tholtan

Posted on June 15, 2019 by Peter Killey

This lovely Tholtan was once known as Grammagh Cottage which sits next to the 17th green on Rowany Golf Course in Port Erin, this once loved home was then part of Upper Rowany Farm. The hill in the background is the Carnanes which leads down to Fleshwick Bay.

Glion Kiark “Glen of the Grouse”

Posted on June 9, 2019June 9, 2019 by Peter Killey

Glion Kiark “Glen of the Grouse” A lovely walk today to this isolated building. It 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. 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 the beginning and ending of the mens work shifts, which ran day and night. The old quarry building is very desolate and quite a hard place to get to it has very steep slopes and ravines to cross and a good set of walking boots are a must.
