Is at the Arch above the entrance to Bradda Glen


Information Point Number 1

Is at the Arch above the entrance, built of local Manx slate immediately on entering you will notice the effects of ‘wind pruning’. It is not pressure from the prevailing wind which causes plants and trees to lean, but the removal of the windward buds so that growth is distorted.

Now go to Information Point Number 2 (Approximately 105 paces from No. 1)
