Douglas Bay Hotel

Built for Mr Marsden by Frederick Callow and opened in 1894, the hotel was extended in 1897. The total expenditure on the venture was quoted as being £32,00 in an advertisement for its sale following liquidation in 1910.

The property was built using local Ballanard brick but this photograph is taken (date unknown) when the hotel has been painted white over the brickwork. It as demolished and a new office block is currently being built on the site.
