Douglas Head Conservation Area

This is an interactive map.

The proposed Conservation Area covers the area of Douglas Head, parts of South Quay and the outer harbour. The road junction of Douglas Head Road and South Quay (adjacent to Trafalgar House and Murdoch House) marks the proposed area’s Northwestern boundary. The boundary then heads east along South Quay past the Millenium Swing Bridge and the fort Anne Jetty. The boundary then steps in-land, excluding the Manx Petroleum depot and Coastguard station before following the Mean Low Watermark around Port Skillion reaching the Conservation Area’s eastern boundary at the Douglas Head Lighthouse. The boundary then heads south, following the coastline past Douglas Head Apartments until it reaches the Archway on Marine Drive. At which point it cuts in-land, following the field boundary and skirting round the rear of the Douglas Head Industrial Estate (which is excluded from within the boundary). The boundary drops around the rear of Taubman Terrace, including the site of the former Gas works and Murdoch Chambers.
