The Leece Museum

Peel, Isle of Man

Established in 1984 and situated along the boat harbour, known as East Quay in Peel, The Leece Museum is located inside the Old Courthouse building. It moved here in June 2000, and the museum was originally started by Mr TE Leece, a retired headmaster of Peel Clothworkers School and Mr Frank Quayle who served the museum for its first 15 years.

Independent from the Manx Museum, the small and bright museum holds many exhibits such as newspapers, photographs and historical items dedicated to the local Peel area. The dedicated staff offer a wealth of valuable knowledge and make it an excellent way to learn about the Isle of Man's only city and it's long past, and with free entry it is well worth a visit.
