Viking settlement works needs more time

A man planning to open a Viking settlement in the north of the Island has asked for more time to carry out work.

Christian Hall of the Manx Viking Project Ltd was given permission in 2022 for the settlement, which would include a foundry, shop and chieftan's hall.

But planners put a two-year time limit of buildings such as a workshop needed to create the settlement.

Now, Mr Hall's applied for permission to keep them in place as work continues on the site.
