Manx Tholtan

 

Manx Tholtan

A tholtan is an old building which has become derelict . It could be a croft or farm building  and there are many on the island. I don't know a lot about this tholtan apart from it being a building on a deserted farm . All tholtans have a sense of atmosphere and this is no exception.

If you would like to see some more tholtans  please let me know. Enter a comment below or contact inkmann@manx.net

Pen and ink from Isle of Man,

 I  drew this pen and ink last year on the way to the Chasms, near Cregneash.

 Came back during TT week to find it has gone . Not sure of the circumstances but glad I was able to capture it before it went.

It is a great spot with amazing views towards the Calf of Man.

Does anyone know what it was used for?
