Killabregga Tholtans

Posted on April 7, 2019April 8, 2019 by Peter Killey

A lovely guided walk around Killabregga Tholtans this afternoon with Ballaugh Heritage Trust, this particular Tholtan was one of the two homes amongst all the barns and piggery and threshing house etc. The upright stones to the right of the image were thought to be peat drying stones, where the peat was hung over to dry out. Killabregga Farm was last farmed in the early 1960’s by the Kinrade family.

The Dhoon – East Baldwin

Posted on March 12, 2017March 12, 2017 by Peter Killey

A very isolated farmhouse and outbuildings, I actually worked there as a joiner about 35 years ago, where a family were going to renovate it! This image was taken from the 33rd milestone on the Mountain Road the other day.

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.
