The once thriving Brewery in Falcon Street in Douglas has now been converted into Apartments!
The Brewery was built in 1874 by Dr Okell – Click here to see the Brewery in 2003.
The image was captured on my Nikon D80 DSLR camera with a Nikon 18-105 F3.5/5.6 G AFS DX lens, cropped and resized in Adobe Photoshop CS6.

Hi! Good picture – I remember that in my childhood the whole area around the brewery smelt of hops!
Hi Joyce, same here, in fact I was born in Hawarden Avenue which is a 5/6 streets away and there were days when I could smell all them hops all them years ago 🙂
More family history! My late father worked in Okells’ cooperage from 1950-55 and part-time as a barman and cellarman at the Falcon Cliff.
