Stories of a Manx farm from over 500 years: murder, fire, curses and more.
A tour of Ballacarnane in the parish of Michael, Isle of Man, uncovering some of the fascinating history and stories which lie all around such an old Manx farm passed down through the Cannell family for 100s of years.
This film of John Cannell in conversation with Katie Newton was filmed at Ballacarnane on 11 June 2018.
Culture Vannin owes a great debt of gratitude to Mr Cannell for his generosity in allowing us to share these stories through this film.
Culture Vannin exists to promote and support all aspects of culture in the Isle of Man. We develop innovative, inclusive and exciting projects that promote and support all aspects of Manx culture.

Hopefully the old Chapel can be tidied up and preserved.

Really interesting video. I think that "in this day and age", where everything evolves at a ridiculously fast pace, we should definitely include our granparents' experiences and their memory as ethnography or they will be lost very quickly. Thank you!

I have just seen this video. I too have relatives there from old. I have a death certificate hand written from Dougles in 1895 of a relative she was only age 23. My name is Collister. Time to do some research. Also have old photos of grand father in the fields by a stone fence. Our relatives would undoubtedly have known each other.

Great video. Time for me to research my history. I live outside London, my fathers side came from I O Man many years ago. Collister is the family name.
