In November 2007 Tynwald resolved that the Council of Ministers consider the establishment of a suitable body for the preservation of War Memorials in the Isle of Man. Subsequently in October 2008, following a report by a Working Group established by Council of Ministers to consider the matter, Tynwald gave approval to the formation of the Isle of Man Government Preservation of War Memorials Committee. I am pleased to lay the Annual Report before Tynwald from the Chair of the Committee. I would like to formally thank the members of the Committee for their interest and dedication shown in the preservation of Manx War Memorials and to especially acknowledge the outstanding voluntary contribution made by all the membership.

THE BARROVIAN KING WILLIAM'S COLLEGE MAGAZINE Published three times yearly NUMBER 232 . JULY I 9 $ J A Career for young men that carries responsibility Britain's need for coal increases every year. Oil and nuclear energy can only bridge the gap between the coal we have and the power we need. The bulk of this energy must, for many generations, come from coal. To meet the increasing demands for coal, vast schemes of recon- struction and expansion are being undertaken by the coal-mining industry, for which there must be an adequate supply of suitably qualified and well-trained men. University Scholarships.—The National Coal Board offer a hundred University Scholarships a year ; most are in Mining Engineering, and some are available in -Mechanical, Electrical and Chemical Engineering and in Fuel Technology. They are worth about the same as State Scholarships but there is no parental means test. School Leavers.—There are also good opportunities for advance- ment for boys with initiative who come straight into the industry from school. You can attend part-time courses (for example. National Certificate courses) at technical colleges for which you are given day release from work with pay. Management Training.—When you are qualified—either through the University or through technical college while working—you are eligible for a two or three-year course under the Board's Management Training Scheme. Each trainee has a course mapped out for him personally, with a senior engineer to give him individual supervision. Scientific Careers.—If you are interested in a Scientific Career, there is absorbing and rewarding work at the Board's Research establishments, in the coalfields on operational work. -

Follow this down over West Quay the electric railway line at Bellevue and you reach Port Lewaigue Start South Promenade and Gob ny Rona. It is well worth spending time here looking back Ramsey Swing Bridge at the sweep of Ramsey Bay and the route that you have come t Ramsey Harbour Ramsey along the coast from the north. arliament Street East Stree RAMSEY Continue on the coastal path – but be aware that the coastal route at Port-e-Vullen is restricted at high tide and you may need to continue along the A15 towards Maughold to take an inland path across Gob ny Rona. At Port-e-Vullen there is a short stretch on the road and then you follow a path back to the coast via a kissing gate. From here you are on some of the Isle of Albert Street Man’s best coastal cliff walks as you head onto Maughold Brooghs, and in spring when the gorse and the bluebells are blooming it is breathtaking. -
The Future of All Saints' Church, Lonan
The Future of All Saints’ Church, Lonan This is a proposal to secure the future of the Church and Burial Ground, following the closure of the church to worship in 2014 1.The Church: All Saints’ Lonan was built in 1834 to replace a previous building on the same site. It served the parish for 180 years and was closed suddenly when the electrical supply and part of the nave floor were deemed to be unsafe. Both defects could have been rectified using the parish funds, but with dwindling support from an increasingly elderly congregation, the decision was made to make the building redundant, transferring to Christ Church, Laxey. In fact, the building is in a surprisingly sound state, as many people discovered when it was re- opened on 13th November 2016 for a Remembrance Service. 2. The Burial Ground: The burial ground is the only one that serves the Parish of Lonan and the Village of Laxey. In common with most of the cemeteries on the Island, it is administered by a Burial Authority consisting of the Vicar and Wardens who levy a precept on the annual commissioners’ rates. In return, any rate-paying household of any denomination or none in the Parish and Village has the right to opt for burial in All Saints’ graveyard. Three-quarters of the population of Garff are thus served by this facility. It remains in regular use and has capacity for at least another 50 years. Investigations are currently taking place into the possibility of the Commissioners becoming the Burial Authority in Lonan. -
Archibald Knox and Buildings in Douglas
14 ISLE OF MAN EXAMINER www.iomtoday.co.im Tuesday, June 18, 2019 BUILDINGS AT RISK Archibald Knox’s influence on buildings in the capital Here, in the latest of the Examiner Buildings at Risk series of features, Patricia Newton of the Isle of Man Natural History and Antiquarian Society is contributing two articles taking a look at what famous Manx Art Nouveau designer and artist Archibald Knox’s life and drawings tell us about the island’s built heritage. She finds that many of the buildings he chose to draw in pen and ink in Douglas have now gone or are under threat, but that more sites merit blue plaques to emphasise his connection to them than the two such plaques in place currently. uildings are not purely the pre- serve of the archi- tects who design them but have a living history in terms of who Bhas occupied them, who has portrayed them in pictures and the stories that they can tell. So what do the Kensington Art School, Balladoole Farm in Arbory, Old Laxey Bridge, the Trafalgar Inn in Douglas, Sul- by Mill, Knockaloe Beg and the Dawsey memorial in Braddan churchyard all have in com- mon, amongst countless other buildings and structures and localities, both identified and unidentified, in Ellan Vannin? The answer in this case is Knox, primarily Archibald of that ilk. The Archibald Knox Fo- rum – led by Chris and Mary Hobdell, and which follows on from the Archibald Knox Society established by the late Liam O’Neill – has identified many of the localities associ- ated with the great man in the Douglas area and organises guided tours around these sites. -
