Suddery later became the ancient capital of Sodor. He is remembered in the city’s motto and coat of arms, the latter of which shows him as a bishop, standing in a coracle holding a crosier.

He preached to the locals, and a church, nowadays known as Suddery Cathedral, was built on the site. The locals treated him well and he built a "keeill". He and some companions set out for Man in coracles, but Luoc fell asleep, was blown off course, and ended up on the shore in Suddery bay. The inhabitants gave no trouble after that and were left alone.Īn Irish missionary named Luoc proved to be more successful. They saw it from their camp at Lancaster and made a landing at what is now Ballahoo, but were driven off. Its size makes it appear difficult, but the combination of subtle humour and lightness of touch makes up for this. The standard history of Sodor is Canon Nicholas Dreswick's "History of Sodor", written in four volumes (Chatter and Windows, Suddery, 1899-1912). Many travelling to Douglas or Belfast embark there rather than at Liverpool or Fleetwood. Tidmouth now contributes to the country's revenues by being an excellent port, owned by the North Western Railway. As this process requires a huge amount of electricity, a hydroelectric power station was opened nearby in 1923. Bauxite is mined at Peel Godred by the British Aluminium Company. The native language, Sudric, is dying out, but the rugged and beautiful scenery and the fishing, particularly in the mountain lakes, attract holidaymakers from all parts. Sodor has a coal mine sufficient for its needs including for its railways. Lead, zinc and silver are mined, and the island stone has excellent weather-resistant properties.

Fishing is important too the Tidmouth kipper is a prized dish at breakfasts far and wide. Oats, barley, and turnips are major crops. It is in the Irish Sea, between England's Lake District and the Isle of Man.Ībout half of the island is agricultural.
