Isle of Man

The "Winkie" lighthouse at the Point of Ayre is a great spot for some pictures. There is absolutely nothing there, but having driven through the flat lands on the North of the Isle of Man, you arrive to find 2 stunning lighthouses. This is the little brother of the 2, located in the middle of the beach. #lifeatexpedia

Part of the Rad ny foillan, Seagull Way coastal path. Point of Ayre. Most northerly point of the Isle of Man.
Marram Grass on the dunes A typical section of upper beach on the edge of The Ayres, with marram grass aplenty.
The hill north-east of Ballavair, Bride. On top of this hill is a mound which was recorded as "having been opened by boys in the 1920s". We may never know it was a Viking burial mound or something much older. The hill is next to the sea and rises to 68m, and would be ideal for a Viking burial which were often positioned with a view of the sea. This picture is taken from A10 Ramsey-Bride Road looking east.
