Hiking
Black Hut (also known as Shepherd's Hut or Stonebreakers Hut) is situated to the northeast of Snaefell on the Isle of Man TT Course. It's at the start of the famous Verandah section of the TT route on the A18 Mountain Road. The hut itself was demolished in the 1980s but the bend still retains the name. Near here is the John Smyth Memorial Shelter.
