Prince Arthur's visit to the Isle of Man: Peel Castle, 1869. Engraving from a photograph by Mr. G. A. Dean. 'The town and port of Peel, situated on the west coast of the island, are sheltered by a little rocky islet, called St. Patrick's, which is artificially joined to the shore by a line of stepping-stones, or causeway. On this islet are a primitive round tower; the ruins of the ancient cathedral of St. Germain, in the Early Decorated style of architecture, built in the thirteenth century; those of the old Church of St. Patrick; and those of Peel Castle, all within an extent of five acres, surrounded by an embattled wall flanked with towers'. From "Illustrated London News", 1869.
