Little people and the missing roof?

Hi list
Many years ago on one of our regular trips to the island my father was taking the family to Peel from Douglas. On the way he told us of a story about a church that had its roof missing the legend goes that every time they tried to replace the roof the "little people" would remove it in the night. Now was this a little story to keep us kids quiet or is there such a fable? If so what church was it, I seem to recall being able to see the roofless church from the road as we passed by.
Regards Roger
