Re: Why IOM 1830s?
In Response To: Why IOM 1830s? ()

There was significant building work in early 1830's - King William's College, several churches under Bishop Ward and also the start of the visiting industry with some large houses designed for letting though I think many were somewhat later in date.
The new steam-Packet also made communication Liverpool/Douglas reliable though not initially cheap.
