Built in 1854 to pump water from the Laxey mines, the Laxey Wheel is the world's greatest industrial water wheel. Known as 'Lady Isabella', a climb to the top of the Wheel is rewarded with breathtaking views across the valley, while the 'Mines Trail' displays the remains of a once thriving industrial complex and offers a pleasant walk through Glen Mooar.
