Port Erin is a seaside village in the south of the Isle of Man. The name means either iron port or Lord's port. The Lord may possibly refer to the parish of the Holy Trinity (Kirk Christ Rushen). Another possibility is that the name is derived from sheear, westerly. The outer breakwater, visible at low tide only, was an abandoned project constructed in 1863 using the Port Erin Breakwater Railway and saw the first steam locomotive used on the island; a severe storm of 1884 later destroyed the breakwater and it was never rebuilt. Today, a marker buoy shows the extent of the breakwater, and the landward end is still clearly discernible. To the north-east, by the A7 road, are the earthwork remains of a motte and bailey castle known as Cronk Howe Mooar, possibly the site of a timber fortification built by Magnus Barelegs [Barefoot] c. 1100.
The steam railway station forms the western terminus of the Isle of Man Railway and sits in the centre of the village. The station has been described as the most beautiful building in town and is constructed of distinctive red Ruabon brick in an unusual design specifically to fit into its diagonal location between the platforms and the nearby road.
Bus services operate directly through a depot in Bridson Street in the village to the island's capital Douglas via Port St Mary, Colby, Castletown and Ballasalla using route numbers 1, 2, 11 and 12; these run about every twenty minutes at weekdays and Saturdays, with a less frequent service at weekends and after 6.00pm. Some of these services (1c and 11b) use an alternative coastal route. The route is the island's busiest, partly because it calls at the island's airport. A late evening service also operates on Friday and Saturday evenings, called the Night Owl (Hullaid Oie), which charges higher fares. There are also occasional buses to Peel (Service No. 8) via Foxdale; all these buses are within the island's transport network Bus Vannin, a government-run service which replaced the railway-operated Isle Of Man Road Services in 1976, itself a subsidiary of the railway.
There is a coach storage car park to the rear of the railway station, formerly occupied by Tours (Isle Of Man) Limited, though more often used by visiting coaches in recent times. A number of private taxi services operate from the village into the later hours, though other Douglas-based hackneys will serve the south on demand.
Fish Hatchery a building in the outer harbour close to the wrecked breakwater, this was home to a University of Liverpool Marine Biology department which closed in 2006. Milner's Tower the distinctive keyhole-shaped building that stands on top of Bradda Head, a memorial to a local locksmith, only reachable by foot. It features on the crest and coat of arms for the village
Railway Museum in the centre of the village and housed in the former omnibus garage of Isle of Man Road Services; open seasonally whenever the railway is in operation and accessible via the main road. Museum Building located within the building originally constructed as a cinema but more latterly used as office space and retail accommodation. Erin Arts Centre located in a converted church on Victoria Square the building is host to annual musical competitions and other events on a regular basis, one of several small centres for the arts on the island
Railway Station in the centre of the village and constructed of distinctive red Ruabon brick, the station is open seasonally; winner of an Ian Allen Heritage Award in 1991. Herdman House now a private residence but built as the village's public library and gaming room, it at one time included a billiard hall and extensive library section before conversion to its present use
Collinson's Cafe an unusual building which is currently empty with several unique architectural features including a rotunda and large sprung dance floor from its time as a dance hall; it can be found above the promenade on the road leading to the golf course
Lifeboat Station this can be found beyond the harbour on the road from the promenade; extended in recent years it retains its slipway and deco architectural style and is open to the public when manned. Police Station the Police Station closed in 2014, and is no longer manned. The closest manned Police Station in the south of the island is in Castletown. A public desk is located here.

Welcome to the Isle of Man
I have made this video with some trepidation, as showing the Isle of Man in a less than flattering light is something I have never done before. But since an MHK remarked on the poor state of parts of the Island recently, I thought I would highlight some of the issues in the hope that the powers that be would, at last, take things in hand and sort them out!

Isle Of Man Steam Railway (part one) - Douglas to Ballasalla [4K]
The first part of our outbound trip on the IOMSR. Not the best views from the train but it was very busy, being the only full return trip of the day to Port Erin due to a loco shortage (soon resolved). We managed to ride in the vacant guards compartment of carr 17, alone until Castletown where even more people managed to cram in the train and we obtained a couple of unassuming gents who weren't bothered about looking out the windows (which was nice).
We will continue to Port Erin in part two. Recorded mostly with Yi 4k action cam with a few minutes of Lumia 950 smartphone footage at the beginning.
