Mona Castle Isle of Man, Seat of His Grace the Duke of Atholl

Date made: c.1820

Description: “The sands of Douglas afford a fine ride, extending nearly two miles – the sea water here is very clear, and the shore well adapted for bathing. The view of the bay, which is very delightful, is much enriched by the commanding appearance of Castle Mona, the magnificent newly erected palace of the Duke of Athol.” (Nathaniel Jefferys, A Descriptive and Historical Account of the Isle of Man, 1809, Jefferys M 00904)
