Introduction: The authors have prepared this submission in the belief that Douglas Head represents a unique area in the Isle of Man and presents an unparalleled planning opportunity through designation as a Conservation Area. Starting in the 17th century, the development of Douglas Head has included an unusually rich and diverse range of human activities and uses. These include residential, recreational, entertainment, industrial and defensive use, each component of which has left its mark and for the most part still endures today. Bounded on the north by Douglas Harbour and Douglas Bay, on the east by the cliffs rising steeply from the Irish Sea and to the west covered in the characteristic gorse and bramble of the Manx countryside, Douglas Head embodies a uniquely diverse and vibrant slice of Manx history, heritage, culture and environment that justifies the full and proper protection afforded by Conservation Area status.

  • THE NORTH STAR CHRONICLES – a Newsletter Primarily for the Model Railway Fraternity
    THE NORTH STAR CHRONICLES – a newsletter primarily for the model railway fraternity Volume 6 no 5 May 2018 Editor: David Cairns e-mail: [email protected] Website for back copies: [email protected] Phone: +27 82 653 5642 Editorial This month’s North Star Chronicles is a bit of a cheat insofar as the primary feature is the Isle of Man and the meat of the article thereon was written while I was editor of the Workbench, the newsletter of the Durban Society of Model Engineers. In my defence I cite the fact that I was away for much of April so time to draft a new NSC was limited. Be that as it may, the subject is dear to my heart. For those interested in railways, particularly steam operated narrow gauge ones, and tramlines, and who are looking for a prototype to model which runs on either 32mm or 45mm track, look no further. I highly recommend a visit to the Island. One piece of advice, do so in the British ‘summer’ and take an umbrella and raincoat. It rains a lot on the Isle of Man! The Isle of Man Located in the middle of the Irish Sea, from the top of the highest ‘mountain’ (formerly accessible by tram) on a clear day the 4 home countries of Scotland, England, Wales and Northern Island are visible. The Isle of Man was originally settled by Celts and Vikings. It is difficult to find the exact words to describe the island but time capsule is certainly apt with respect to some of its transport facilities.

  • Harbours Strategy
    GD 2018/0011 Harbours Strategy March 2018 Department of Infrastructure pp1 FOREWORD To the Hon Stephen Rodan, MLC, President of Tynwald, and the Hon Council and Keys in Tynwald assembled. As an Island community, our sea links have been important to us for hundreds of years, and their strategic significance will continue for the foreseeable future. With our dependence upon our sea links and our ports for economic and social wellbeing, we embrace our close connection to the water. As well as enabling the movement of goods and people, our harbours provide opportunities for Island residents to participate in boating activities, with high levels of leisure boat ownership by Island residents. Yet the appeal of our marine leisure assets is not limited to Island residents. With excellent connections to Ireland, Wales, England, and Scotland, together with its numerous small harbours, anchorages and bays, the Island is a destination of choice for leisure cruising. This strategy considers the current facilities and operational challenges at our largest commercial port of Douglas with recommendations of development or improvement, plus consideration of the leisure offer at the Island’s natural harbours, and identifies potential opportunities to develop the marine leisure sector on the Isle of Man. By providing services and modern facilities which meet the needs and demands of the modern leisure boating customer, there is the potential for the Island to grow this sector to the benefit of individuals who participate in marine leisure activities, the individual towns and villages in which our harbours are situated, and the Manx economy as a whole.

  • Manx Place-Names: an Ulster View
    37 Manx Place-Names: an Ulster View Kay Muhr In this chapter I will discuss place-name connections between Ulster and Man, beginning with the early appearances of Man in Irish tradition and its association with the mythological realm of Emain Ablach, from the 6th to the I 3th century. 1 A good introduction to the link between Ulster and Manx place-names is to look at Speed's map of Man published in 1605.2 Although the map is much later than the beginning of place-names in the Isle of Man, it does reflect those place-names already well-established 400 years before our time. Moreover the gloriously exaggerated Manx-centric view, showing the island almost filling the Irish sea between Ireland, Scotland, England and Wales, also allows the map to illustrate place-names from the coasts of these lands around. As an island visible from these coasts Man has been influenced by all of them. In Ireland there are Gaelic, Norse and English names - the latter now the dominant language in new place-names, though it was not so in the past. The Gaelic names include the port towns of Knok (now Carrick-) fergus, "Fergus' hill" or "rock", the rock clearly referring to the site of the medieval castle. In 13th-century Scotland Fergus was understood as the king whose migration introduced the Gaelic language. Further south, Dundalk "fort of the small sword" includes the element dun "hill-fort", one of three fortification names common in early Irish place-names, the others being rath "ring­ fort" and lios "enclosure".
