(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.

Crammag Packhorse Bridge – Sulby
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.

Former Cornaa Farm
Former Cornaa Farm, now a beautiful Tholtan. A very remote part of the Isle of Man to say the least! Feel free to make any comments either on this website by clicking the “Leave a comment” above or by logging onto my Facebook Page enjoy – Click on the image for a larger view.

Ballarghey – Foxdale
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
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
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.
