Day 241 of 365 Photo Challenge. The Douglas Hotel, The C - Listed Douglas Hotel has been on this site before the town of Brodick was established and has been a landmark in the town ever since. Locals and tourists over the years have fond memories of the Douglas Hotel which has played host to generations (often of the same family) enjoying special occasions at the Douglas Hotel and holidays on Arran. Its client history has been quite diverse, originally providing accommodation for associates of the Brodick Castle laird, the Duke of Hamilton, and more recently it has acted as the base for Royal Navy Submarine Commanders while completing their rigorous training on the Perisher course. The original two and a half storey house is recorded in "Brodick Old and New" as being constructed in 1782 and is typical of this type of house from that period, It later became the local Doctor’s house and practice up until 1852 when it became a hotel. The red sandstone (quarried on Arran) and slate roofed two and a half storey hotel was constructed in front of the original house in 1858 and the grounds were landscaped at this stage. The first manager, Mr P Macdonald was brought over from "where he had one of the finest hotels in Glasgow by the Marquis of Douglas for whom he had been a yeoman" and he became a much respected member of the community. This coincided with the removal of the island landing in 1856 from below Brodick Castle at the other side of Brodick Bay to its current pier location consequently encouraging an embryonic tourist trade. The 2.5 storey dining room/function suite wing to the west was added, matching the red sandstone and slate and mimicking the eaves details and chimneys of the original development. #365photochallenge #photooftheday #arran #visitarran #brodrick #douglashotel #hotel (at The Douglas Hotel) https://www.instagram.com/p/B1w2GAAhc95/?igshid=sgqfvvhtleu3

Peter Brodrick - These walls of mine I

Everytime i try to stay inside without another living person in sight

Always with the choice to turn on or off the light

We don’t need a candle to handle this night

 Every time i try to stay inside away from what lies beyond the window

I love the window sometimes

i am just not ready to go

So i stay inside where i work on my pride

 Every tiny letter that i write smiles back at me

reading with uncertainty

Absolutely unsure about its new life

But there is a reason why i brought it here

just to get my mind get a little more clear

 Every tiny letter that i write takes up a lot of space

Underneath my face an evasion complex place

It takes one out when i need some room

When i m finished this time I’m pretty sure i will still be overloaded

 It’s only funny looking from the outside Cause when you’re in that shit

It’s the only shit around

So it’s best to get used to the sound

That sound is always there and waiting to be found

Again

 It’s only funny looking from the outside when you’re in a plane

And you look at the clouds

You know beneath the clouds there is a world

With a lot of little people with a lot of little worlds

And isn’t that one big

what what what what what what what what what what

what what what

 there’s a lot of things without a word to describe them

even when you bring them inside where you work

on your pride

you could stare at each other for hours

only to realise your not even sure

if the other isn’t really there

 if you really want to try and do something new

its okay to fair weeks but there have to be a few peaks

and when the whole thing drops you can

take it take it back to the top

fowing may be weird

but its better then just singing again

and even though i like to sing

i just think its fun to try everything

 so even though i don’t know where i m gonna go

i keep my eyes wide open and i m always hoping

that i might see a place or a pretty face

she walks with grace

and every day kids laid and i crawl into bed

darkness ahead

 i wonder where you are

and if you even are

and if i think its you I’ll have a dream or two

and then turn that dream into a little song

it won’t take long

but it might be forever cause I’m often wrong

but it s already done

and on the record that is often spon

 it is very often that i like to hear it

hear it hear it hear it hear it hear it hear it

it is very often that i like to hear it

hear it hear it hear it

 but then i always try to remember that there is so much more

how i m always inside and i close the door

the most confusing part is that got me away from the start

is that there are many doors that cause this wars

and opening the right combination of doors

at any given point in time

is practically impossible
