Bradda Head Nature Trail - Information Point Number 7
Information Point Number 7
Port Erin lifeboat station comes into view. Continue between the clipped Fuchsia hedge on your left and the Escallonia on your right. Follow the path with the palm on the right.
Note the well-grown Scots Pine, which is the only pine native to the British Isles, re-introduced into Man where it had died out sometime after the second century A.D.
Then, return to the main path via the steps to the viewing platform/picnic area.
In the stonework you will see an excellent example of pinky-red Spur Valerian, naturalised and well-established here. White and brick-red forms also occur but less commonly. MNH info boards at the top of the steps on the right. Walk along the picnic area and keep straight ahead.
Now go to Information Point Number 8 (Approximately 165 paces)
