'''St. Patrick's Isle''' is a small [[island]] of the [[Isle of Man]] in the [[Irish Sea]] largely occupied by [[Peel Castle]] and noted for its attractive and relatively well preserved historic castle [[ruins]]. These ruins include St Patrick's Church and an Irish like Round Tower, St German Cathedral, and the more recent residence of [[Lords of Mann]]. The ancient [[cathedral]] was left to decay in the [[18th century]], never to be rebuilt. The [[islet]] is now a [[tourist]] site within the castle walls. There is a public walk around the outside of the castle, which lines the coastal edge of the islet.
