Summary[edit]
| Description |
English: Onchan - Church Road - Molly Carrooin's cottage View is to the east. Location is southeast of A2 (Main Road, Whitebridge Road). This cottage is the oldest existing structure in Onchan. It was built in the 18th century, possibly as early as 1740. The original cottage had a thatched roof, but no chimney stack. Later on, a chimney stack was added, as shown in the earliest photograph of this cottage taken about 1860. Near the turn of the century, the thatched roof was replaced with a slate roof. This cottage was tenanted by Molly Carrooin and her sister. They were washerwomen who did the village laundry. The cottage became uninhabitable and the sisters were the last to occupy the cottage, moving out in the early 1930s. Ownership exchanged hands several times. In 1969, the cottage was presented to the Village of Onchan for restoration and preservation as a typical Manx cottage. |
