From Douglas Head

Douglas Head commands a fine view of the town, harbour, and some distant mountains; and when I am not inclined to take a long walk, I amuse myself with ascending here, where I can arrive in 20 minutes any time from my lodgings.' (Miss Weeton, Journal of a Governess, May 25th 1812, M 08236)
