RK066/St. Trinian's
Chapel
This ruined chapel sits at the foot of the
Greeba mountain and dates back to the 12th
Century. Manx Folklore tells the story of
a local creature called the Buggane. This
giant was concerned, that on completion
of the church, the Monk's would be constantly
ringing the bells and disturbing his peace.
Therefore, every time the roof was put on,
he would tear it off again, ensuring the
church would never be finished. I took the
image from the small stream that runs along
side the ruin and framed the chapel between
the rather sinister, outstretched 'arms'
of the trees.
