    Knockaloe earmarked for agriculture by government

    Government says it's going to rent out Knockaloe Farm in the west of the Island to agricultural tenants.

    The decision from the Department of Environment, Food and Agriculture comes after a wide consultation into future uses for the Patrick site.

    One idea had been to turn it into a heritage centre celebrating its past as a World War One internment camp - but the department says it won't pursue any of the proposals.

    It will, however, still host the Royal Manx Agricultural Show.
