Comment

The greatest man-made construction in the Isle of Man is also one of the oldest and simplest. The four-tiered mound of earth known as Tynwald Hill , opposite St John's Chapel, many have originally started off as a burial mound but was adopted by the Vikings over a thousand years ago for the business of open-air law making and other matters of government. Its location, linked by a processional pathway to a place of worship and court house (within the chapel) and surrounded by a green, follow the Norse tradition for the site of a Government assembly.
