This view gives an impression of just how big the Laxey Wheel is ... The person in the red coat is about 5' 3" tall.

The turnstile controlling the entrance to the Laxey Wheel Museum. Well worth the visit, Lady Iabella [the Wheel] is magnificent ! [see the/my first comment, below]

The very ornate exit gate & fence from the Lady Isabella [aka the Laxey Wheel] - the inbound side is a red-painted turnstile.

The spare or extra crank for "Lady Isabella" - this connects the wheel to the horizontal rods that connect to the vertical pumping rods. This has never been used, if there had been a need for more pumping power, the plan was to install this on the other side of Lady Isabella, to operated an additional set of rods ... Left here in 1854, it forms a useful seat as one walks up the side of the hill.
