Heritage body's land totals thousands of acres

An Island culture and heritage body says it owns more than 2,000 acres of land across the Isle of Man.

Manx National Heritage gave the figures in response to a Freedom of Information request about its land holdings.

It said in total it had just over 2,326 acres under its ownership - around 941 hectares - without including sites such as Peel Castle.

In its response, the organisation added its largest  parcel of land is the 616-acre Calf of Man, while its smallest is Port-e-Vullen in Maughold which is under an acre.
