Manx National Heritage sites reopen

Visitor hubs set to be introduced at two locations this summer

Manx National Heritage has reopened a number of its sites today marking the beginning of the season.

Visitors are being welcomed back at Peel Castle, Castle Rushen, the Great Laxey Wheel,  the Nautical Museum, Cregneash, Rushen Abbey and the Grove Museum.

A number of sites have seen restoration and maintenance works over the winter.

Later this year, in early summer, new 'visitor hubs' are also set to open in Castletown and Laxey. 

Pauline Wall is the Head of Operations - she says these centres will provide information about the charity's conservation efforts:

Guided tours of Castletown's historic sites will also return on selected dates.
