Derby House, Castle Rushen

Archaeology

Post medieval house.


Domestic quarters within Castle Rushen were modernised in the later 16th century by creation of what is now Derby House. The building was extensively remodelled during the Civil War period by the 7th Earl of Derby during his time on the Island (1643-51), and further more minor changes were brought about by his successors.
