Free to attend but those interested are being told to book in advance

Rushen Heritage Trust is organising a walk to commemorate the 150th anniversary of Port Erin benefactor William Milner's death.

It will cover sites such as the Milner Tower plaque, St Catherine’s Church, St Catherine’s Terrace, and Milner Tower on Bradda Head, depending on weather conditions.

If the weather is poor attendees will visit Milner’s gravestone at Rushen Parish Church instead.

The free event takes place on 30 September, starting at Rushen Heritage Centre in Port Erin, at 10.30am.

Tea and biscuits will be provided at the heritage centre after the walk.

Registration is required and those interested can book a place by calling 330584.
