(7 images in this post). A lovely walk today down to Spooyt Vane Waterfall. This is one of the highest waterfalls on the Isle of Man and is situated in a very isolated but tranquil setting in Glen Mooar, the name means ‘white spout’. To get to the waterfall I passed Spooyt Vane Chapel, this quaint chapel is reputed to be the smallest chapel on the Island, it was built as a school and later used as an Anglican mission, it is now sadly disused and in private ownership. Then onto ‘The Monks Road‘ this ancient road is at least 1500 years old and once linked up all the Island’s 220 keills and then down the glen to this famous waterfall. Thank you to my friend Pheric Curphey for allowing us access onto his land.
