Two Bronze Age urns were found here in 1879. The find was described as being made "'In the Faaic" some 25 metres north of the Vicarage and to consist of two 'tall crocks' which contained "black matter". They were reburied on the spot by a Mr Corrin. The contemporary vicarage is not shown on Ordnance Survey plans but would appear to be in the area centred on SC 377978.
A former Wesleyan Methodist church which has closed and been converted for residential purposes. It has a datestone inscribed with AD 1847 in its south-facing gable wall.
This K6 telephone kiosk stands in Bride village and is an example of the classic cast-iron red telephone box designed by architect Sir Giles Gilbert Scott. Rolled out from 1936 to mark King George V's Silver Jubilee, the K6 became the standard telephone kiosk across Britain and the Isle of Man, and surviving examples like this one in the small farming village of Bride are now valued as protected pieces of twentieth-century street furniture.
This K6 telephone kiosk stands in Cregneash, the small crofting village in the island's far south-west that is now home to Manx National Heritage's open-air Cregneash Folk Village Museum, which opened in 1938 and preserves the look of a nineteenth-century Manx settlement. The kiosk is an example of the classic cast-iron red telephone box designed by Sir Giles Gilbert Scott and rolled out from 1936 to mark King George V's Silver Jubilee, and it sits alongside the village's thatched cottages as one of the few visibly twentieth-century additions to this otherwise carefully preserved historic streetscape.
This is a K6-model telephone kiosk, the classic red cast-iron design created in 1935 by the architect Sir Giles Gilbert Scott to mark the Silver Jubilee of King George V. First deployed from 1936, the K6 was the earliest red telephone box rolled out nationally rather than confined to London, with thousands installed across towns and villages, including on the Isle of Man, where Manx Telecom has continued to use the traditional red livery associated with the design. Many K6 kiosks elsewhere have since been withdrawn from service, but around 2,000 have been given listed or protected status for preservation; this example at Derbyhaven is one of the Island's own protected examples. No further site-specific history for this individual kiosk was found online.

This is a K6-type telephone kiosk on Peel Promenade, registered as a protected building on 1 September 2021. The K6 was designed in 1935 by Sir Giles Gilbert Scott to mark King George V's Silver Jubilee and became the most widely recognised red telephone box across Britain and the Isle of Man. No further building-specific history was found.
This K6 telephone kiosk on Queens Road, Port St Mary, is an example of the classic cast-iron red telephone box designed by the architect Sir Giles Gilbert Scott. Introduced from 1936 to mark the Silver Jubilee of King George V, the K6 became the most widely deployed kiosk design in Britain and its territories, and many surviving examples, including numerous ones on the Isle of Man, are now protected for their architectural and historic value as street furniture from that era.
This is a K6 telephone kiosk, the classic red cast-iron design created in 1935 by Sir Giles Gilbert Scott to mark the Silver Jubilee of King George V. It went into production in 1936 and became the first red telephone box design used widely outside London, valued for being cheaper to produce and more compact on the pavement than its predecessor, the K2. Distinguishing features include its eight-row glazing pattern and an embossed crown motif above the door. No history specific to this individual kiosk on Shore Road, Port Erin, was found beyond its inclusion on the Registered Buildings list.

This is a K8-type telephone kiosk on Hillberry Road, Onchan, registered as a protected building on 1 September 2021. The K8 was the last standard Post Office kiosk design, created in 1965-66 by architect Bruce Martin for the General Post Office; around 11,000 were installed across Britain and its islands between 1968 and 1983, and surviving examples such as this one are now increasingly rare. No further building-specific history was found.
This red K8-type telephone kiosk stands in the Memorial Gardens beside the Court House on Parliament Street and was registered as a protected structure in September 2021, one of a small number of surviving K8 kiosks recognised on the island alongside the more common K6 design found elsewhere. No further history specific to this particular kiosk has been found.

Modern limekiln.
The Ordnance Survey First Edition 1:2500 map of 1868 shows a group of six limekilns at this location just west of Kallow Point. Associated records identify them in sequence from south to north.
Modern rope works.
The Ordnance Survey First Edition 1:2500 map of 1868 shows a rope works at this location near Kallow Point.
The rope walk extended north-westward for a distance of 850 feet.
The location of a feature decribed as a paved platform which measured 4.5 metres in diameter and was surrounded by stones on edge of a field known a Kame Mooar (Big Stile), about 275 metres northeast of Ballakilmartin.
This looked like the base of a barrow, containing burnt soil and stones. It is apparently a spread, ditchless, grass-covered bowl barrow with a diameter of 21.0 metres and a height to the south of 0.5 metres. It cannot now be described as a platform and no stones are visible.
The large scale 1:2500 Ordnance Survey mapping of 1870 shows most of the buildings that today comprise Karran's Croft. Today these buildings form a core part of the village folk museum, interpreted as a byre, a former stable and barn, and as a now-roofless cartshed. The byre previously served as a dwelling, which itself was a replacement for an earlier cottage which more recently served as the cartshed: both former dwellings preserve evidence for hearths demonstrating their original domestice purpose. Other, smaller structures are likely once to have served as a pigsty and hen-house.
To the north and east of the buildings lies the farmyard and stack-yard (haggart).
The grid reference is centred on the yard.
