Heritage open days this weekend

by isleofman.com 1st October 2011

There's a chance to see behind the scenes at the Derby Castle tram workshops this weekend (October 1 and 2).

It's part of an Island-wide series of heritage open days, in which Manx National Heritage is working with other organisations across the Island.

Guided tours of the workshops run from 10am until 2pm today (Saturday) and tomorrow, the Laxey sub-station is also open to the public, and Bulgham Bay halt is in use.

Elsewhere, the transport museum at Jurby has a display of historic photos, as well as all the usual exhibits, and there are guided tours of the Manx Aviation and Military Museum at Ronaldsway.

Entry is free to all those events although fares do apply for tram rides.

There are also guided tours of Milntown House, on the outskirts of Ramsey, with booking available on 818091.
