Belle Vue was a very popular resort presenting circuses, model villages, a replica of HMS Victory and much more at a site about a mile from the centre of Douglas, beween the Rivers Doo and Glass just before they converge to become the Douglas River. We get a glimpse of what was there as we hear of the destruction of quite large parts of it in a fire on 23rd November 1895.
It's not so much a story as a study or sketch by Cornish writer, Arthur Quiller-Couch, that we hear in a Manx translation of an unusual family living in Yorkshire.
