A Walk Around Castletown Download residents still recall the particular aroma associated with brewing days. The harbour area in front of the Castle is still relatively busy A WALK AROUND with smaller, pleasure craft. It formerly accommodated larger vessels carrying timber and coal; in season it was thronged with a considerable fishing fleet but now only one commercial fishing boat operates from the harbour. By the swing bridge is The Castle CASTLETOWN Arms, more popularly known as The Glue Pot, one of the oldest public houses on the Island. 5 The Nautical Museum is most famous for housing the world’s THE ANCIENT CAPITAL OF MANN oldest yacht “The Peggy”, owned by the enigmatic Captain George Quayle: politician - he was elected as a member of the House of Keys in 1784; banker - founded the first Isle of Man Bank in 1802; soldier – he was a Captain in the Royal Fencibles, and alleged smuggler! A busy man indeed. He lived in the large slate- 9 Hango Hill (additional 15 minute walk each way from stop 5) hung house next door called Bridge House. is best known as the site of the execution of Manx martyr, William Christian also known as Illiam Dhone (Brown William), on 6 Old House Of Keys, seat of Manx Parliament until 1818, since that January 2nd 1663. Local people still gather here each year on time the building has been a bank (or two) and The Town Hall before the anniversary of his execution to commemorate his life. From being transferred into the care of Manx National Heritage, who here you can also take in the beautiful view over Castletown Bay carefully restored it to how it would have been in 1866. It is situated to Langness Lighthouse. Looking inland the rather impressive on Parliament Square which was cleared of houses during the Civil buildings are King William’s College, a private school for boys and War to give a better range of fire for the cannon in the castle! girls from 11-18. The school was built in 1933 by Bishop Barrow. King William IV of England allowed the use of his name, though contributed nothing to the cost. 10 Manx Aviation And Military Museum is a short drive from Castletown and located next to the airport. The museum includes a wide variety of uniforms, weapons, models and memorabilia, as well as the personal stories of the Manx Regiment which makes this a fascinating stop. There is also a WW1 Exhibition which tells the story of the Island at war, with special artefacts, letters and unique stories of the Manx men from the era. Entry is free. More details can be found at www.maps.org.im/museum 7 The Old Grammar School was established in the 17th century and continued as a place of education until 1931, when falling pupil numbers and the poor state of the building led to its closure. From here you can see the full sweep of the bay from Langness lighthouse to Scarlett. The openings in the cliffside are old kilns for burning lime, which was used to build houses in town. 8 The Train Station originally opened in 1874 and has been carefully and tastefully maintained since. It is a wonderfully preserved Victorian station and it is easy to imagine a busy day with carts and carriages arriving to collect goods and passengers. Now it is a very busy and popular tourist attraction, operating daily during the summer season.

The large flat slabs around the sundial are known as “the fishslabs”, as the area was reserved for the fishermen. The tall column in the square is the Smelt Monument built by public donation in memory of Colonel Cornelius Smelt, the popular 3 Lieutenant Governor who died in 1832, though unfortunately there wasn’t enough money for the statue on the top.

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.

  • Manifesto: of John Hanson Candidate for Malew and Santon, in the House of Keys Election of 2011
    Manifesto: of John Hanson candidate for Malew and Santon, in the House of Keys election of 2011. Helping to give the people “TRUE” Freedom to Flourish Personal details: Age 54, Married to Glenda and living in Santon. I have three sons and a daughter and can often be seen walking in and around our parish and beyond with our family dog Monty. During my travels I come across many like-minded residents, who like myself are both disillusioned and upset with the general direction life on this beautiful Island is taking. I would therefore like to present myself for election in the forthcoming general election, with the aim to protect our life style and encourage a return to more traditional values. History: I have lived on the Island for over forty years during which time I successfully ran a small licensed tourist establishment in Douglas for over twenty years. With my involvement within this business now on an advisory nature I feel that I have the time and commitment necessary to allow me to devote my time and energy to the people of Malew/ Santon and the Island as a whole. The Future: If elected, to help guide the Island to a strong independent future, encompassing a variety of tried and tested fields, such as tourism, finance and farming. To encourage all Island residents to play that vital role within our economy,thereby maintaining pride and respect in the whole Island. KEY POINTS. 1. To encourage Government to examine the need for all future major capital expenditure programs, and if need be offer a system of referendum to the Manx people, ( the Richmond Hill improvement being just one which has caused inconvenience and hardship to users of the A5- our premier road link between Isle of Man Airport and Douglas thus being the gateway to at least 50% of all arrivals to our Island), at the end of the day will it prove to be value of money or just another miscalculation of our needs? 2.To campaign for leaner, fitter Government departments capable of providing the best possible levels of service within the confines of its budget.

  • Sketches from Manx History (1915)
    STEPHEN MILLER CHRISTOPHER SHIMMIN SKETCHES FROM MANX HISTORY (1915) CHIOLLAGH BOOKS FOR CULTURE VANNIN 2020 SKETCHES FROM MANX HISTORY * (1) [5b] The story of the Isle of Man may be divided into three distinct periods—the Celtic, from the unknown past to the 10th century; the Norse, to the middle of the 13th century; and the Manx, to the present time. The story of our Island changes its form as we journey backwards in time. First we have written history, as recorded in State papers and official documents. Overlapping these, and often in conflict with them, we have tradition—a statement of events handed down orally from one generation to the next. Beyond this is Legend—accounts of occurrences passed down through the ages, and usually overlaid with wonder and imagination until it becomes difficult to decide which is truth and which is fancy. Farthest away, in the dim, nebulous beginning of human story telling, we find the most ancient of all records, that of myth. The wonder stories of Egypt, Greece, and Germany, are familiar to many readers, yet how few of us trouble to read the legends of our own race and land. The Celtic mythology is as wonderful, as beautiful, and has more of tenderness than the others. We have marvellous stories of the doings of gods and goddesses, heroes and heroines, druids and magicians, kings and queens, giants and dwarfs, battles of nations, wars with fiends and fairies, adventurous voyages in magic lands and seas, and even under earth and sea. We have beautiful legends of saints and the miracles performed by them; weird stories of witches, stirring battle stories.

    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.
