RAF Jurby Turret Training Range.
Constructed in the late 1930s or early 1940s as an adjunct to the adjacent airfield at Jurby, this gunnery range allowed air gunners to practice shooting at a moving target from a representative aircraft gun turret.  Various turrets were provided, mounted on wheeled undercarriages so that they could be moved into position on the range as required.  The 'target aircraft' was mounted on a petrol engined railway vehicle that was protected by running outside a concrete and earth wall with only the target showing above.  Originally much further from the cliffs, erosion has left the westernmost part of the range precariously close to the edge, with the building that housed the target trolley already fallen and resting on the beach below.

Douglas
After days of windy weather, yesterday morning was almost calm with very few clouds, so I took the opportunity to do some aerial photograpy
around the outskirts of Douglas, flying from four locations.  DJI Spark
 
The Braaid
An important historical site close to the current hamlet of the same name, showing the convergence of Celtic and Norse cultures.  The site has the 
remains of a Celtic roundhouse and two Norse longhouses.  It is though that it was occupied until around the 11th or 12th centuries.
