Dreswick Point

Dreswick point lies at the southwestern tip of the Langness Peninsula in the south-east of the Isle of Man, some two kilometres from Castletown.

Langness Lighthouse was established in 1880 to guide boats into Castletown and is currently owned by TV car journalist Jeremy Clarkson who has featured the lighthouse in an episode of Top Gear (series 07, Episode 1). Before this time, a landmark known as the Herring Tower held a lighted flare to guide fishing boats into what was previously the busiest port on the island.
