Hango Hill is an ancient mound on the road between Castletown and Derbyhaven on the Isle of Man. It is the site where William Christian (Illiam Dhone) was executed by firing squad on 2 January 1663, on the order of Charles Stanley, 8th Earl of Derby. Blankets were spread on the grass so that when Christian fell, not a drop of his blood would touch Manx earth.
