Description: “It may reasonably be concluded that Peel Isle was once the residence of all that was great and venerable in the Island. It now presents to the eye a complete and beautiful ruin; for all its grandeur is fled, and its glory is no more.” (Nathaniel Jefferys, A Descriptive and Historical Account of the Isle of Man, 1809, M 00904)
Sketch by Captain William Latham of Liverpool. In July 1815 Captain William Latham made a tour of the Isle of Man with Mr William Gerard Walmesley Esq of Liverpool, Mr James Leigh of Liverpool and Mr Ralph Greenough of Wigan. Latham made many sketches of the Island during his visit.
