We go to the heart of Douglas, to Cheu y Phurt - the North Quay. Old St Matthew's stood at the open-air market place until the late 19th century brought the cast iron meat and fish market and the brick-built butter, fruit and vegetable market. For a short time, the old chapel still stood as the new church came into use on 10th August 1897. And our story is about apples - and a 'fairy' who brings loads of them.
