There will be a demonstration this afternoon in Maughold against the expansion of the local quarry.
A group called the Dreemskerry Quarry Action Group has been formed to protest against planning proposals.
They claim it would lead not only to a big increase in heavy lorry traffic but it would also create a giant scar on the landscape.
The demonstration starts at 1pm at the house ‘Rockside’ near the Venture centre.
