About the event

Walk in the Footsteps of Archibald Knox – Maughold Church Loop
Join Catriona Livingstone for a walking tour through the beautiful Manx countryside to see the landscapes that inspired Archibald Knox’s work. These immersive walks offer a sensory experience, allowing you to feel and appreciate the essence of Knox's artistry. Along the way, you’ll gain unique insights into his life and legacy, with plenty of time to pause, take in breath taking views, and connect deeply with the surroundings much as he did.

This excursion starts with a stroll around Maughold churchyard where we can see the Celtic and Viking crosses and the Hall Caine memorial designed by Knox. The remains of ancient keeills and wells are evidence of Maughold’s importance as the centre of early Celtic Christianity. There is the option of climbing up Maughold Head, once a defensive hillfort and the site of a bronze age burial ground. We will walk across the valley and up to Dreemskerry where there are spectacular views back to Maughold Head. Our final destination is the 17th century Quaker Burial Ground and neolithic Ballafayle Burial Cairn.
