A picturesque village best known for its large waterwheel, links to the Electric
Railways, and garden glens.
|
Laxey is a village located on the east coast of the Island. Named from the
Norse word for Salmon river 'laxa', due to the tales of great catches. Today
Laxey is mainly a residential and tourist area, though in the past it was
a thriving mining and fishing village. The Laxey Mines were the deepest
mines in the world during the 1800's. The Great Laxey Wheel, 'Lady
Isabella', was used to pump water out of the mines.
