ARBORY parish, in the Sheading of Rushen, extends about 6 miles in length from north to south, and 2 miles in breadth from east to west, It is bounded on the north by Patrick, and on the cast by Malew, on the south by the sea, and on the West by Rushen parish. The parish church is a small edifice situated about the centre of the parish, and 2½ miles west of Castletown. The living is a vicarage value, £160, in the patronage of the crown, and held by the Revd. C. T. Langton. The Wesleyans have chapels at Ballabeg and Colby Bridge; the Primitive Methodists have one also at the latter place It is supposed that the parish derives its name from Saint Cairbri, one of the early converts of St. Patrick ; Cairbri being doubtless corrupted into Arbory. The soil of the parish is generally good. and the farms well cultivated.
