Port Grenaugh

Port Grenaugh is a bay in the Isle of Man at the end of Glen Grenaugh, Santon and the mouth of an apparently unnamed stream which originates in the Newtown area of the parish by Ballakissack farm.

Close by is Cronk ny Merriu - one of the remains of promontory forts which date back almost 2,000 years.

Famous quotes containing the word port:

    In the midst of this chopping sea of civilized life, such are the clouds and storms and quicksands and thousand-and-one items to be allowed for, that a man has to live, if he would not founder and go to the bottom and not make his port at all, by dead reckoning, and he must be a great calculator indeed who succeeds.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
