Lhergy Veg ("the Little Slope") is a site in the parish of Lonan on the Isle of Man, a deserted house once tenanted by weavers. One occupant was known as "the Fairy Doctor" and "the Fairy Tailor", who practised unorthodox veterinary work and was said to get his tunes from river sounds. Beneath the house were "fairy-holes" where offerings of food were placed, and figures wearing strange head-dress were said to emerge from below the hearthstone.
