Аббатство Рашен

Аббатство Рашен (англ. Rushen Abbey) — аббатство, расположенное вблизи Балласалла, остров Мэн. В двух милях от находится замок Рашен, в Средние века являвшийся важнейшим крепостным сооружением. Именно здесь в 1261—1262 годах были написаны «Хроники Мэна», важнейший письменный источник по истории острова. Известно, что мэнский король Олаф I в 1134 году пожаловал Фарнесскому монастырю крупные владения на острове, где возникло дочернее аббатство Рашен. В 1147 году аббатство переходит под контроль цистерцианского ордена. Постройка церкви, посвящённой Святой Марии, была завершена к 1257 году. Однако в 1539 году Генрих VIII незаконно, без согласия Тинвальда, упразднил аббатство Рашен и мелкие монастыри на острове Мэн. В начале XX века, руины аббатства приобрели популярность у туристов, и здание начинают реставрировать. Однако к началу Второй мировой войны аббатство вновь приходит в плохое состояние. В мае 1998 года, аббатство Рашен причисляется к национальному достоянию острова Мэн, начинается активная реставрация. В это же время проводятся археологические раскопки, в результате которых было найдено множество старинных предметов. Сейчас аббатство является одной из достопримечательностей острова Мэн. В специальном помещении можно познакомиться с историей аббатства и окружающих его земель. С апреля по октябрь аббатство открыто для туристов. Доступны звуковые и визуальные материалы, рассказывающие об образе жизни монахов. Для детей отведена специальная площадка, где они могут построить церковные арки и узнать историю аббатство через различные игры. В аббатстве также расположены сады, где туристы могут отведать клубничные и кремовые чаи. Монаший мост Приблизительно в 1350 году монахами был построен мост, для переправы через местную реку Сильвэбёрн, для работ на огороде. Сейчас мост известен как Кроссаг (анг. Crossag), и это один из немногих уцелевших мостов для вьючных лошадей на Британских островах. Примечания
Rushen Abbey

Rushen Abbey var ett av cisterciensordens kloster på Isle of Man. Det var beläget mellan Castletown och Ballasalla. Klostret grundades på 1100-talet och övergavs på 1500-talet på grund av avskaffandet av kloster väsendet. Runt år 1900 blev ruinerna av klostret en populär turistatraktion och berömt för att det serveras smultron och grädde i klostrets trädgård. Efter andra världskriget glömdes klostret bort tills Manx National Heritage övertog det i maj 1998. Nu har klostret fått en ny byggnad som berättar om klostrets och bygdens historia. Ruinerna av klostret har blivit restaurerad och stigar har blivit gjorda för att besökare ska få en bättre blid av ruinerna. Man kan besöka klostret mellan april och oktober.

Sulby Reservoir

The Sulby Reservoir is the largest reservoir or lake in the Isle of Man, with an area of 154 acres (62 ha). The reservoir Sulby is an impounding reservoir. The dam was completed in 1982 and has a rock-fill embankment 73 metres (240 ft) high. The reservoir's capacity is 4,832,000 m3 (170,640,470 ft3) and the maximum depth 73 m (240 ft). The water flows to Sulby Water Treatment Works, from where it is pumped to consumers. Geography The reservoir is located at the top of Sulby Glen near the source of the Sulby River, the longest river on the island. It is at the foot of Druidale; Glen Crammag; the valley of the upper part of the Sulby River; and a fourth, unnamed minor valley, receiving water from all these rivers. It is at the junction of three parishes: Michael, Lezayre and Braddan. Sulby Reservoir is also about 1.5 miles (2.4 km) west of the summit of Snaefell, the island's highest peak. It is operated by the Isle of Man Water Authority. Use The reservoir supplies the northern half of the island, St Johns, Peel, Kirk Michael, Ballaugh, Andreas, Bride, Ramsey and Laxey. Water can also be pumped to the West Baldwin Reservoir which supplies Douglas and the southern half of the island. The reservoir also powers a hydro-electric power station one mile (1.6 kilometres) downstream. Water flows through a pipeline from the reservoir to the power station. The power station is also fed by another, smaller reservoir, Block Eary. An energy recovery system was installed at the Sulby Water Treatment Works in 2013, to generate hydro-electric power from the incoming water, which is then purified before being pumped on to customers. Trout fishing is available and there is a large car park. It is also a registered dark sky discovery site. References External links Isle of Man reservoirs
Салби (водохранилище)

Салби (англ. Sulby) — водохранилище на острове Мэн, крупнейший внутренний водоём острова. Расположено на реке Салби. Площадь водной поверхности водохранилища — 0,616 км² (154 акра), глубина — до 60 м (200 футов), объём воды — 0,0045 км³ (1000000000 галлонов). История Искусственные водохранилища стали создаваться на острове Мэн ещё в XIX веке. Необходимость создания водохранилищ объяснялась развитием туризма, а следовательно и ростом потребности в питьевой воде, особенно в летний период. До 1948 года водохранилища острова эксплуатировались девятью разными муниципальными и коммерческими компаниями. В 1948 году был создан Водный совет Острова Мэн (Isle of Man Water Board), таким образом эксплуатация почти всех водных ресурсов острова была объединена в одной организации. Единственной компанией, не вошедшей в состав Водного совета, был водный департамент Дугласской корпорации. В 1976 году было принято решение о создании водохранилища в долине реки Салби. Предварительный проект был представлен на рассмотрение в 1977 году, к 1979 году проект был утверждён и в том же году началось строительство дамбы. Дамба строилась в два этапа: сначала до высоты в 35 метров, затем — до высоты 60 метров. Строительство дамбы было завершено к августу 1982 года, водохранилище было заполнено до проектной отметки в апреле 1983 года. Источники Официальный сайт правительства Острова Мэн . www.gov.im.

House of Manannan

The House of Manannan is a museum in Peel in the Isle of Man. It is named after the "great mythological sea god" Manannan and covers the island's Celtic, Viking, and Maritime history. History The museum is located in the former Peel railway station. The original building was built in 1873 and closed in September 1968 with the closure of the Peel line between Douglas and Peel. In 1979 it was used to house Odin's Raven. In 1997 the building was then repurposed and expanded to suit the needs of the museum at a cost of £5.5 million. In 1998, the museum was awarded National Heritage Museum of the Year, an award shared with the Jersey Maritime Museum in St Helier. In recent years, the museum has sadly fallen into disrepair due to lack of maintenance and investment. Exhibitions The museum has several permanent exhibitions depicting the Celtic period of the Isle of Man to the modern era, such as a life size reconstruction of a Celtic roundhouse, as well as other attractions based from the 19th century, like a replication of a Peel street. Sea stories are also shared with visitors. One of its most notable attractions is Odin's Raven, a recreation of a Viking longboat in two-thirds scale. Odin's Raven was made in Norway and then sailed to Peel, arriving on 4 July 1979 as part of the High Court of Tynwald's millennium celebrations. Apart from the permanent exhibitions, several temporary themed exhibitions are shown in the exhibition gallery each year. Artists such as Edward Kelly have had their work exhibited in the gallery. Other exhibitions have included This Is Christmas which focuses on the celebration of Christmas during the 1950s to 1970s on the Isle of Man. Facilities The museum also has a gift shop and a café. There is limited parking behind the museum. References
Isle of Man Incinerator

The Isle of Man Incinerator was designed by Savage & Chadwick Architects and has an unusual shape and design, the stack of which is designed to represent a Viking sail. SUEZ Recycling and Recovery UK was awarded the contract to design, build and operate the incinerator by the Isle of Man Government. The incinerator is located on an old disused landfill and has a capacity to treat 60,000 tonnes of municipal waste, in addition to clinical and animal waste. In order to accomplish this, the facility actually incorporates two separate incinerators. The facility uses moving grate technology. In popular culture The incinerator was used as a location in the filming of the 2006 film Stormbreaker.

Point of Ayre Lighthouse

The Point of Ayre Lighthouse is an active 19th century lighthouse, sited at the Point of Ayre at the north-eastern end of the Isle of Man. It was designed and built by Robert Stevenson, grandfather of prolific writer and novelist Robert Louis Stevenson, under the Isle of Man and Calf of Man Lighthouses Act 1815 (55 Geo. 3. c. lxvii) and was first lit in 1818, making it the oldest operational lighthouse on the island. Description The lighthouse still retains its original 1st order Fresnel lens from 1890, which was supplied by Barbier, Benard, et Turenne of Paris. With a focal height or elevation of 32 metres (105 ft) above sea level, the light from the 30 metres (98 ft) tower has a nominal range of around 19 nautical miles (35 km). Its light characteristic is made up of a pattern of four flashes of white light every twenty seconds. The tower has a distinctive daymark of two red bands, the light can be seen clearly from across the water in south-west Scotland. Owing to the continuous accumulation of shingle and gravel deposited by the strong currents, a smaller light commonly referred to as a 'winkie' had to be built 750 feet (230 m) to the seaward side of the main tower in 1899. This was then repositioned a further 250 feet (76 m) in the same direction and for the same reasons in 1950. The 'winkie' light was discontinued on 7 April 2010. The lighthouse buildings and land have been in private ownership since 1993 when the light was fully automated. The light continues to be maintained by the Northern Lighthouse Board based in Edinburgh. In August 2005, the fog signal at the lighthouse was decommissioned owing to the assumed reliance and availability of GPS and modern shipping guidance systems.

Faro de la Punta de Ayre

El Faro de la Punta de Ayre​ (en inglés: Point of Ayre lighthouse) es el faro más antiguo de la Isla de Man. Fue diseñado y construido por Robert Stevenson, abuelo del prolífico escritor y novelista Robert Louis Stevenson, y se encendió por primera vez en 1818. La luz tiene un alcance nominal de alrededor de 19 millas (31 km) a una altura de 32 metros (105 pies). Pintado con dos bandas rojas distintivas, la luz se puede ver claramente a través del agua en el suroeste de Escocia. Debido a la continua acumulación de guijarros y grava depositada por las fuertes corrientes, un faro más pequeño comúnmente conoceido como un 'winkie' tuvo que ser construido a 750 pies (230 m) hasta el lado del mar de la torre principal en 1899. Este fue luego colocado de nuevo otros 250 pies (76 m) en la misma dirección y por las mismas razones en 1950. El faro 'winkie' se suspendió el 7 de abril de 2010.

Phare de Point of Ayre

Le phare de Point of Ayre est un phare situé sur la Point of Ayre (en), le point extrême nord de l'Île de Man. Il est le plus ancien phare en activité de l'île. Le phare est géré par le Northern Lighthouse Board (NLB) à Édimbourg, l'organisation de l'aide maritime des côtes d'Écosse et de l'Île de Man. Histoire Il a été construit par David et Thomas Stevenson. Le phare a conservé sa lentille de Fresnel originale, fournie par Barbier, Bénard et Turenne de Paris en 1890. Avec une hauteur focale de 32 mètres au-dessus du niveau de la mer, la lumière de la tour de 30 mètres a une portée nominale d'environ 19 milles nautiques (35 km). Sa caractéristique lumineuse est de quatre éclats de lumière blanche toutes les vingt secondes. La tour, avec lanterne noire et galerie, est peinte en blanc avec deux bandes horizontales rouges. La lumière peut être vu clairement du sud-ouest de l'Écosse. Les bâtiments de la station et les terres autour sont devenus une propriété privée en 1993, lorsque la lumière a été entièrement automatisée. En août 2005, le signal de brouillard du phare a été désarmé en raison de l'utilisation généralisée de GPS et de systèmes modernes de guidage de navigation. Point of Ayre Winkie En raison de l'accumulation continue de graviers déposés par les courants marins forts à cet endroit, un phare plus petit appelé Point of Ayre Winkie a été construit en 1899 à environ 230 m en mer sur le côté de la tour principale. Il a été repositionné de 76 m dans la même direction et pour les mêmes raisons en 1950. Cette lumière a été abandonnée le 7 avril 2010.

Latarnia morska Point of Ayre

Latarnia morska Point of Ayre – najstarsza istniejąca latarnia morska na Wyspie Man. Została zbudowana w roku 1818 przez szkockiego inżyniera Roberta Stevensona, dziadka Roberta Louisa Stevensona dla Northern Lighthouse Board. Położona jest na przylądku Point of Ayre około 12 kilometrów na północ od Ramsey. Od południa sąsiaduje z nią latarnia morska Douglas Head. Obiekt znajduje się na liście Royal Commission on the Ancient and Historical Monuments of Scotland pod numerem NX40NE 1. W 1890 roku zaistniała potrzeba budowy dodatkowej latarni Point of Ayre Low zwanej "Winkie". Jest to niewielka 10 metrowa ośmiokątna wieża z podwójną galerią projektu Davida A. Stevensona. Dolna część latarni pomalowana jest na biało, a górna na czerwono. Latarnia zakończyła pracę 7 kwietnia 2010 roku. W 1993 roku latarnia została zautomatyzowana i jest sterowana z centrum w Edynburgu. Sąsiadujące budynki zostały sprzedane. Od 1993 roku znajdują się w rękach prywatnych. Przypisy
Lag ny Keeilley

Lag ny Keeilley liegt am Fuße des 437 m hohen Cronk ny Arrey Laa (auch Cronk ny Irree Laa) südlich von Peel, im Südwesten der Isle of Man und besteht aus einer Keeill, einer Culdeer-Zelle, einem Friedhof und einer frühkirchlichen Einfriedung. Interessant an dieser alten Keeill auf dem Felsvorsprung ist, dass sie vom etwa 2 Kilometer südlich gelegenen Dalby Strand per Boot erreicht werden und die Anlandung nur an einem ruhigen Tag bei Hochflut innerhalb einer Stunde erfolgen kann. Der steile Anstieg von etwa 200 m ist zudem schwierig. Der andere Zugang erfolgt auf der alten Packpferd-Route von Eary Cushlin aus. Dieser Weg ist das beste erhaltene Beispiel der alten Packpferd-Wege. Die letzte Beerdigung auf dem Friedhof scheint im 18. Jahrhundert erfolgt zu sein. Literatur C. E. Lowe, P.

The Kew

Das The Kew (auch Liaght ny Fawyr oder Giant’s Grave genannt) liegt in Kirk German, bei Glenmooar auf der Isle of Man. The Kew ist eine doppelte Steinreihe aus etwa 15 Steinen, deren Abstand und Größe zum östlichen Ende hin kleiner wird. Die Steine sind leicht nach innen geneigt, so dass es unwahrscheinlich ist, dass dies nicht der Originalzustand ist. Im Westen endet die Formation abrupt an einer alten Feldgrenze. Die in der lokalen Literatur häufiger erwähnte Anlage wurde 1927 untersucht. Zweifellos hat die Errichtung der Feldgrenze die Anlage gestört und es ist unmöglich zu beurteilen, ob der große Stein im Wall sich in situ befindet. Es gibt Spuren eines Hügels auf der Westseite der Feldgrenze, aber keine weiteren Steine. Die Gesamtlänge beträgt 26,0 m. Am westlichen Ende der „Steinallee“ wurden unter der Grasnarbe eine Art Pflaster und Reste eines Walls entdeckt. Das Denkmal könnte eine zerstörte Megalithanlage unbekannten Typs sein. Den Namen Giant’s Grave(s) tragen außerdem: die Steinkiste Giant’s Grave auf der Isle of Man, die Steinreihe Giant’s Grave (Cumbria), vorzeitliche Monumente im County Antrim (Nordirland), im County Tipperary (Irland) und der Parc Cwm Cairn bei Swansea, in Wales. Giants’ Graves sind auch Reste einer Megalithanlage auf der Isle of Arran in Schottland und der Giants’ Graves in North Yorkshire in England. Weblinks Beschreibung engl. und Plan Bilder

Sulby Glen railway station

Sulby Glen Railway Station (Manx: Stashoon Raad Yiarn Ghlion Sulby) was an intermediate station on the Manx Northern Railway, later owned and operated by the Isle of Man Railway Company from 1905; it served the village of Sulby in the Isle of Man and was an intermediate stopping place on a line that ran between St. John's and Ramsey. As the next stations on both sides were provided with passing loops, this station ran straight through; there was a gated level crossing at the northern extremity which was operated manually by station staff, the structure also serving as station masters' accommodation. Buildings The original station building, built from corrugated iron at the time of opening, was later deemed to be too close to the running line, and was rebuilt at the turn of the twentieth century with a different style of building including a built-in canopy, making it unique in style among the Manx Northern Railway's stations, several of which were largely identical including those at Sulby Bridge, Ballaugh, Kirk Michael and St. Germain's, all of which except for Ballaugh remain in situ today and private residences. There was also a timber-built small goods shed at the southern end of the station. Today The station was closed, along with all other stations on the line, in 1968 and later converted to a private dwelling. The former platform has had a wall added to make another room for the house, but the original structure and purpose can clearly be seen from the nearby footpath that follows the trackbed, the house is named Station House and carries a name plaque featuring a locomotive and the crest of the Manx Northern Railway as well as garden gates in a railway style. The former goods shed/store and this is also still extant. Route See also Isle of Man Railway stations Manx Northern Railway Sulby, Isle of Man References "Subterranea Britannica - Closed Station".
