Saturday, 1 September 2012 01:00

The Southern Heritage Trail starts today - showcasing a wide selection of unusual properties in the south of the Island.

Visitors can purchase a programme from local shops for £5 which will admit one adult to all ten properties with school-aged children going free.

The trail's opening times today are 11am to 5pm, with cakes and refreshments on sale at Colby Methodist Chapel and Castletown Methodist Church.

Proceeds from the sale of programmes will be donated to the Colby Methodist Chapel Building Fund, with contributions being made to a selection of Manx charities.
