Keeill Sulbrick (Santon)

Early Christian Keeill & Chapel MED Priority Keeill Sulbrick (Santon) - Early Christian Keeill & Chapel on the Isle of Man
Keeill (17' x 8'6") in Santon with a pre-Norse cross found — among the earliest Christian evidence on IoM. Santon sits on the south coast near the Fairy Bridge (ancient river crossing). WHY: Pre-Norse crosses date to the 6th-8th centuries and are the oldest form of Christian monument on IoM. Their presence indicates early missionary activity. Santon's position near the main north-south river crossing (Fairy Bridge) means this keeill sat on a major route. Travellers and pilgrims would have stopped here.
