Замок Рашен

За́мок Ра́шен (en. Cashtal Rushen) — средневековый замок в давней столице Острова Мэна Каслтауне, на юге острова. Считается одним из наиболее сохранившихся средневековых замков Британских островов. На территории замка располагаются суд, музей и образовательный центр. История Строительство замка началось ещё во времена господства на острове Мэн скандинавских князей, передавших этот остров Шотландии после шотландско-норвежских войн 1263-1266 гг. Первоначально замок находился в собственности шотландцев, но позднее перешёл под контроль англичан. 18 мая 1313 года шотландский король Роберт Брюс вторгся на остров Мэн и через пять дней захватил его вместе с замком, который стал заставой, прикрывающей подходы к западной Шотландии. С 1405 года по 1738 год островом Мэн управляла английская семья Стэнли. В XVIII веке замок перестал быть основным защитным сооружением острова, и в его пределах расположился монетный двор, а позднее — суд острова Мэн. С конца XVIII века замок использовался как тюрьма. К концу XIX века замок обветшал и его пришлось реконструировать. В 1929 году замок от британской Короны передали в собственность Правительства острова Мэн. В настоящее время — музей.

Castle Rushen

Castle Rushen är ett medeltida slott i staden Castletown på södra Isle of Man. Den reser sig över marknadsplatsen i sydöst och över hamnen i nordöst. Slottet byggdes för att beskydda inloppet till Silverburn floden. Det var kung Magnus III av Man, den sista nordiska kungen över Isle of Man, som lade den första grundstenen runt år 1250. Det kungliga huset använde slottet som deras residens ända fram till år 1266 då skottarna tog över styret på Isle of Man. Slottet har sedan successivt byggs till under 12-, 13- och 14 – talen. Idag är slottet ett museum som behandlar historien om Isle of Mans kungar och Lords of Mann. Se även Peel Castle Laxeys vattenhjul Rushen Abbey Källor Fritt översatt ifrån engelska Wikipedia.
Hango Hill

Hango Hill is an historic mound on the coast road between Castletown and Derbyhaven, Malew parish, Isle of Man. Prehistory The mound is said to be a possible prehistoric burial site. The recovery of a bronze flat axe implies a possible Bronze Age date. Its name derives from the Norse hanga-haugr, "Gallows hill". Place of execution Hango Hill was used as a place of execution at least until the 17th century. An entry in the burials register of Malew for 1604 states that William Keruish and Robert Calow, from Kirk Maughold, for the murder of a certain Cottscam of that parish, were hanged at the Hango Hill gallows on 31 August and buried in the church of Kirk Malew, in front of the porch. It is most famous as the execution site of Illiam Dhone (William Christian) in January 1663, for his part in the Manx rising of 1651 against the Derby family and there is a broken-down monument with a plaque commemorating this. However the history is rather more complicated than that, as the island had been invaded by Parliamentary forces of the English Civil War. Building by the Earl of Derby The monument is said to be the remains of a late 17th century summerhouse, or hall, known as Mount Strange, after a subsidiary title of the Earls of Derby. A hall was built on the summit of Hango Hill by the earls of Derby in the years following the execution of William Christian in 1663. The hall was about 10m in length, but now only about a third survives following the erosion of the coastline. Early drawings show a building with battlements, and it has been referred to as a "blockhouse"; it seems however only ever to have served as a banqueting hall and a summerhouse, and it was associated with horseracing organised by the Earls along the dunes to the east onto Langness – the first "Derby" races. The erection of this building would appear to imply that the site ceased to be used as a place of execution. Certainly by the 19th century, executions were being carried out at Castle Rushen nearby. The estate of Hango Hill was placed in the hands of trustees by Bishop Barrow in 1668 for the purpose of founding an educational institution on the island; much later, the trust founded King William's College, which lies across the road from the mound itself. Modern era A Committee of the Tynwald Court was appointed to consider what steps should be taken to preserve the ancient monuments at Hango Hill. It reported in November 1891. A picture of Hango Hill was featured in a set of Manx Revenue stamps issued in 1966. It is occasionally used as a gathering-place by Manx nationalists, with an annual speech in the Manx language. The site is promoted as a film location. References
Colline de Hango

La colline de Hango, située près de la ville de Castletown, sur l'île de Man, était autrefois un lieu où l'on exécutait les condamnés à mort. Son nom vient du norrois hanga-haugr (« colline du gibet »). Elle fut renommée mont Strange, par les comtes de Derby, en l'honneur de l'héritier des Derby, Lord Strange. On pense que le site abritait des sépultures aux temps préhistoriques. Lieu d'exécution La colline de Hango servait de lieu à l'exécution des condamnés à mort, au moins jusqu'au XVIIe siècle. On lit dans le registre des sépultures de Malew à l'année 1604 : « Anno 1604, William Keruish et Robert Calow, de Kirk Maughold, pour le meurtre de [sieur] Cottscam, de la dite paroisse, ont été pendus au gibet de la colline de Hango le 31 août et enterrés en l'église de Kirk Malew, en face du porche. » Le condamné le plus célèbre à y avoir été exécuté fut le héros mannois William Christian du Ronaldsway dit Illiam Dhone, le 2 janvier 1663, pour s'être opposé au comte de Derby, seigneur de l'île. Après cette exécution, le comte fit ériger sur la colline une résidence d'été, sans doute pour empêcher de faire de la colline un mémorial de la résistance mannoise contre les intérêts anglais. Cette demeure est tombée en ruine, mais il reste un pan de mur à peu près bien conservé.

Hango Hill

Hango Hill is een grafheuvel uit de bronstijd, een plaats van executie sinds het einde van de zestiende eeuw en de locatie van (de ruïne van) een zeventiende-eeuws zomerhuis, gelegen aan de kust in Derbyhaven bij Castletown in de parish van Malew op het eiland Man. Beschrijving Hango Hill is gelegen op de noordelijkste punt van de kust van Castletown Bay tegenover King William's College. De The Promenade gaat hier over in de Derbyhaven Road. Op de heuvel, waarvan de zuidzijde deels in zee is verdwenen, zijn de resten aanwezig van een zomerhuis uit de zeventiende eeuw. Hiervan is onder meer een muur met het onderste deel van een westelijk raam overgebleven. Etymologie Hango refereert in het Oudnoords aan begraven en mogelijk aan executie door ophanging. Geschiedenis Hango Hill is een grafheuvel uit de bronstijd. Oorspronkelijk had deze heuvel een diameter van achttien meter, maar door erosie is een deel van de zuidzijde verdwenen in zee. In de heuvel werden een bronzen bijlkop gevonden en menselijke resten. Vermoedelijk hebben ook de Vikingen hier overledenen begraven en gezien de naam uit het Oudnoords gebruikten de Vikingen deze locatie ook al als executieplek. Hango Hill was de locatie van de galg in Castletown, in ieder geval vanaf 1595. Op deze plek werd in 1663 de voormalige ontvanger-generaal van het eiland Man, William Christian (1608-1663) (in het Manx-Gaelisch Illiam Dhone geheten) wegens verraad in de Engelse burgeroorlog geëxecuteerd . Christian was een vertrouweling van de graaf van Derby en Heer van Man tijdens deze burgeroorlog en deze zag het als verraad dat hij in 1651 het eiland Man overgaf aan de parlementaire legers in ruil voor een aantal garanties. Christian werd doodgeschoten en niet opgehangen. Omdat sommige mensen hem als een martelaar zagen en men wilde verkomen dat deze plek een schrijn voor Christian werd, werd de galg verplaatst naar een andere locatie en werd op deze heuvel een zomerhuis genaamd Mount Strange gebouwd voor Charles Stanley, achtste graaf van Derby en heer van Man. Het huis was circa veertien meter bij 7,3 meter groot. Binnen bevond zich een open haard. In 1702 stonden er een ovalen tafel en een dozijn stoelen in het zomerhuis. Vermoedelijk raakte het zomerhuis in onbruik na het overlijden van de negende graaf van Derby in 1702. Aan het einde van de achttiende eeuw stortte de heuvel deels in zee en werd het zomerhuis een ruïne. In 1713 was er een batterij van vier lichte kanonnen op de heuvel geplaatst. Dit in verband met de Spaanse Successieoorlog. Rond 1908 werd een zeemuur gebouwd aan de zuidzijde om verdere erosie door de zee tegen te gaan. Folklore Als bloed op de grond viel, zou dat ongeluk brengen,vooral als dat het bloed van een belangrijk perssoon was. Dus toen Illiam Dhone werd geëxecuteerd op Hango Hill in 1663 werden dekens op de grond gelegd zodat zijn bloed niet de grond zou raken.Sommige verhalen vertellen zelfs dat er überhaupt geen bloed uit zijn wonden kwam hoewel de kogel zijn hart raakte.

All Saints Church, Douglas

All Saints Church, Douglas, Isle of Man, is a 1967 Modernist Anglican church which closed in May 2017. The building was listed as a Registered Building of the Isle of Man in 2001. History The first All Saints was consecrated in 1898. Known as the "Tin Tabernacle" due to its corrugated iron exterior, All Saints was established as a chapel of ease for the growing population of Douglas attached to St. George's Church. Although this structure was only initially expected to last a little over 15 years, it was not until 1965 that it was finally determined to be unfit for further use. After demolition of the "Tin Tab," the new All Saints was consecrated by the Bishop of Sodor and Man, Eric Gordon, on 20 April 1967. It was the first, and last, new Anglican church built on the Isle of Man for over 50 years. Architecture The Modernist architecture of the building is a rarity in the Isle of Man. Designed by Claude Jennings Kneen for Davidson, Marsh & Co., the building was influenced by Auguste Perret's Église Notre-Dame du Raincy (1923) and Le Corbusier's Notre Dame du Haut at Ronchamp (1954). Noted distinctive features of All Saints include the curved concrete roof and pierced concrete block screen to the porch, which are uncommon in the Isle of Man. Notable from the interior of the building are the twelve 'Apostle' windows on north side of the sanctuary, made of thick glass from Gothenburg with each in a different colour; the East gable made from Pooil Vaaish black limestone; the font of grey-green Irish limestone decorated with a pattern found on the Cross of Gaut now housed in Kirk Michael; and the Rosso Francia altar which features birds carved into its side as one of the All Saints Building Committee was a keen amateur ornithologist. An architectural guide to the Isle of Man estimates the building as of importance:All Saints is the Island's best and most intact Modernist building, although built well into the Late Modernist period when the early heroism was often replaced by cynicism. Closure After leaks began to appear and the walls were found to be "wringing wet" with condensation, an architectural survey was commissioned. In 2016 the result was reported that the expected cost of the necessary repairs and refurbishment to the building would be in the region of at £400,000. The diocese deemed this to be ’unjustifiable’ in the contexts of the parish and the church on the Isle of Man, and so determined that the building should close. After the 50th anniversary of the building's consecration on 23 April 2017 and the final Parish Communion on 30 April, worship in the parish moved entirely to St George’s church, and All Saints finally closed its doors on 1 May 2017. The church was documented in photography and film by Culture Vannin on 27 April 2017, days before its closure. The building was converted into a fitness gym which is due to open in early 2026.

Herring Tower, Langness

The Herring Tower is situated on the Langness Peninsula in the south of the Isle of Man. It was built by Thomas Brine in 1811. The tower was built as a daymark and was based on the style of the tower of Peel Castle. Since 1991 Herring Tower has been protected as a registered building. History In 1811, architect Thomas Brine was commissioned by the British Government to construct two daymarks on the Isle of Man to assist cargo ships in navigating safely around the island's coast. Twelve years later in April 1823, Brine placed an advertisement in the Manx Advertiser for masons and other workers to work on a stone beacon in Derbyhaven, which may have been Herring Tower. Another identical daymark was also built in Douglas Head, which now forms part of the Douglas Head Hotel. During the herring fishing season, a fire would be displayed in the tower to guide ships into Derbyhaven. But the tower failed to prevent many shipwrecks, with forty being recorded after the tower was constructed. However, calls for a lit lighthouse to be built nearby were rejected until 1877. Langness Lighthouse was built three years later in 1880. A meeting of the Isle of Man Planning Committee of the Department of Local Government and the Environment on 21 June 1991 decided to protect Herring Tower as a registered building. The tower was publicly declared a registered building on 1 August 1991. Architecture Herring Tower's design was heavily inspired by the round tower of Peel Castle. References

Old St Runius, Marown

St Runius, Marown ("Old Marown Church") dates to the 12th century and was the parish church of Marown until 1853. Today it only holds services for special occasions. History Dedicated to Ma Rooney (St Runius), the church was built in around 1200, but was altered in 1754. Evident remains of the original smaller building can be seen in the eastern half of the church today. The original door of the early church was in the south wall, and it is still visible in the outside of the church today. The absence of windows in the northern wall, although notable today, was common in the 12th century. The church was altered and extended towards the west by about 5 m from 1750 to 1755. The moulded jamb-stones in the church were taken for the purpose from the early St Trinian's, also in the same parish. Another feature was the western gallery for musicians, including violins and flutes, which would have stood over the modern doorway. The stone steps outside the building gave access to this gallery. In 1853 the church was displaced as the parish church for Marown by the church opened on the main A1 Douglas - Peel Road, which was also dedicated to St Runius. At this time Old St Runius was used as a mortuary chapel; this led to a part of the east end being demolished, and a door constructed., Although the church continued to be used for special services, it fell into disrepair and it was only after restoration by volunteers that it could be reopened on 9 August 1959. Although no regular services are now held at the church, it remains open and services are held for special occasions. It a registered building. Features The church holds a number of early examples of Christian crosses, dating back as far as the 7th century. The best preserved of these crosses was only discovered when the doorway was heightened and the slab was found to be in use as the lintel. Significant persons connected to the church Captain John Quilliam was baptised here. Thomas Christian was vicar here. Bishop Lonnan was possibly buried here. Bishop Connaghan was possibly buried here. Bishop Runius was possibly buried here. Gallery References

Bunscoill Ghaelgagh

Bunscoill Ghaelgagh és una escola d'educació primària en manx situada a St John's, Illa de Man. A 2011 és l'única escola del món on les classes s'imparteixen únicament en manx, fet que permet que els nens parlin la llengua amb fluïdesa. Els estudiants poden, després d'acabar l'escola primària, anar a l'institut QEII, o a l'institut de la seva circumscripció, on s'ofereix a partir dels 12 anys el manx al General Certificate of Secondary Education. Història El 1999 es va crear una associació de pares, Sheshaght ny Paarantyn, l'interès de la qual se centrava a establir una escola en manx. Aquell mateix any es varen posar en contacte amb en Departament d'Educació de l'illa de Man i hi van fer arribar la seva demanda. L'escola obrí finalment el 2001. En aquests primers temps d'existència, l'escola constava de tan sols una classe, i compartia instal·lacions amb l'escola Ballacottier de Douglas. El gener de 2003 es va traslladar al seu propi edifici a l'antiga escola de St John's. L'escola va guanyar el guardó anual Reih Bleeaney Vanannan l'any 2006, amb motiu dels seus esforços preservant i promovent la llengua, cultura i patrimoni manx. Va ser presentat pel llavors portaveu de la "House of Keys" James "Tony" Brown, president de la Manx Heritage Foundation. Inscripcions El nombre d'inscripcions ha anat creixent de manera continuada, des de 9 inscrits el 2001 quan l'escola es va traslladar a les seves dependències actuals a 47 el 2006, 65 el 2009 i fins a 69 el 2012. Manx L'escola és considerada un èxit com a part del moviment de recuperació del manx. L'escola mateixa fa referència a estudis fets a Finlàndia que demostren els avantatges de l'educació bilingüe. La investigadora Aini-Kristiina Jäppinen va examinar els resultats de 334 estudiants de 12 escoles en programes de 'continguts i aprenentatge integrats per la llengua' i els va comparar amb els de 334 alumnes que estudiaven sols en finès. Es va concloure que una segona llengua s'afegeix al procés d'aprenentatge i sembla millorar-ne els resultats. Segons Jäppinen, "Quan els alumnes han de conceptualitzar i captar conceptes en una segona llengua i en la seva llengua materna, s'ajuda a desenvolupar l'habilitat d'entendre relacions complexes i amb múltiples cares entre diversos temes."

Patrick (parish)

Patrick (Manx: Perick) is one of the seventeen historic parishes of the Isle of Man. It is located on the west of the island (part of the traditional North Side division) in the sheading of Glenfaba. Administratively, a small part of the area of the historic parish of Patrick is now covered by part of the town of Peel. Other settlements in the parish include Dalby, Foxdale, Glen Maye and Niarbyl. Local government For the purposes of local government, the majority of the area of the historic parish forms a single parish district with Commissioners. Since 1884, a small area in the north of the historic parish of Patrick has been part of the administratively separate town of Peel, with its own town Commissioners. The Captain of the Parish (since 2010) is Patricia Costain. Politics Patrick parish is part of the Glenfaba & Peel constituency, which elects two Members to the House of Keys. Before 2016 the majority of the historic parish was in the Glenfaba constituency, and from 1867 until 2016 Peel formed its own constituency. Geography The parish is bounded by Peel in the north, German in the north and east, Marown to the east, Malew to the south-east, Arbory and Rushen to the south, and the Irish Sea to the west. The parish is a mainly hilly area including the northern slopes of the South Barrule; Slieau Whallian; and to the west, Dalby Mountain. Glen Rushen is located between Dalby Mountain and the South Barrule, and leads downwards to Glen Mooar and finally Glen Maye. Through these glens flows the Glenmaye river, with the Glenmaye waterfall, about one mile from the coast. There are disused slate quarries in Glen Rushen. In common with other hilly areas of the island, there are several forest plantations. The coastal strip, roughly that to the west of the A27 road, is flatter agricultural land. The population was historically partly agricultural, fishing, and mining. Now it is sparsely distributed over the parish: there are four small villages, Dalby near the coast on the west side of Dalby Mountain, Foxdale, a former mining village, Patrick in the north, and Glen Maye, near the coast and home to the glen of the same name. The parish also includes the southern part of the village of St John's. The parish forms part of the ecclesiastical (Anglican) Parish of the West Coast. Demographics The Isle of Man census of 2016 returned a parish population of 1,576, an increase of 3.1% from the figure of 1,527 in 2011. References
