Janet's Corner  (The Isle of Man in WW2)
Channel: Culture Vannin
Date: 2020-05-05

Almost forgotten today, the former living quarters for those at Ronaldsway Airport during the Second World War forms the basis of Janet's Corner, a modern housing estate on the edge of Castletown.
This short film investigates some of its history, and explores something of the life that those from HMS Urley (the Royal Navy base at Ronaldsway) enjoyed here.

This is one of a series of films investigating the Isle of Man during the Second World War.
