The Glue Pot Public House

Archaeology

A post-medieval public house in Castletown.


This complex structure dates from at least the later 18th century: the older part of the building opposite Castle Rushen is present on a watercolour by John 'Warwick' Smith, whose collection of 26 views of the Isle of Man were prepared in the early 1790s and are notable for their accuracy.


Officially named the Castle Arms, the public house is popularly referred to as the Glue Pot. 


The building is inscribed in te Protected Buildings Register (No. 25)
