Wiki says it was Douglass not Douglas.
They were involved with the Wolf Rock Lighthouse down here between Land's End and the Isles of Scilly, apparently the first in the world to have a helipad up top.
Somewhere I have a photo I once took many years ago of the sea near Wolf Rock from a ship I was on which was on a 9 day inward journey from Montreal to Tilbury Docks, the reason I took the photo was because of the sea state, no not rough but almost mirror calm, the calmest I had ever seen, if I ever find it I'll try and post it up.
