Details

THE ARCHIBALD KNOX TRAIL

The Archibald Knox Trail has been developed using QR code technology. By using the maps shown below you can plan a visit to see 27 places of Knox interest on the Isle of Man which contain over 60 items of his work, or details about his life.

For example, Braddan New cemetery is one of the 27 places but in the cemetery are 12 graves designed by, or associated with Knox.

As the website maps are of smaller scale than the actual physical map leaflet you may have to try capturing the scan a few times before being successful.

People of the Isle of Man, and visitors, can obtain free Knox Trail leaflets at visitors' centres, hotels, public houses and libraries.

Trail booklets can be purchased at the Manx Museum or via the The Archibald Knox Forum email - akforum@manx.net
