About
The artist and designer, Archibald Knox, was anonymous and elusive, an intensely private man who did not seek to promote himself, but whose soul and creativity live on in his extraordinary art and designs. These walks will take us into the Manx countryside where you can experience for yourself the place that inspired Knox and deepen your understanding of the man himself. Walking is a sensory way to experience a place and a visceral way to appreciate Knox and his work. As we walk and talk about Knox's life and legacy, there will be time to pause and take in the wonder of the light and the views, that are not that much different now, than as he experienced them.

St Adamnan's has some outstanding examples of Celtic/Viking crosses and the church itself is a gem, a fine example of a country church.
