MNH director says strategy has paid off
Manx National Heritage says there's been a sharp rise in the number of people visiting its sites around the Island this year.
Figures released show a growth in sales of tickets and multi-site passes to both local residents and off-Island visitors.
Use of UK heritage passes at Island attractions rose 17 per cent in 2014-15 over the previous year.
And revenue from shops at Manx attractions rose by 7.5 per cent over the same period, bringing in around £300,000.
Director of Manx National Heritage Edmund Southworth says their strategy of targeting travel operators has paid off:
Meat and cheese seized at Sea Terminal

Electronic red flag system to be tested tomorrow ahead of TT
Manx Care's social care director appointed interim chief officer at DHSC
Island's campsites prepare for TT visitors
