The statue of Our Lady, Star of the Sea is situated in a shrine close to the Catholic Church of Our Lady, Star of the Sea and St. Maughold.

The shrine is located in front of the perserved gable wall from a former Catholic Chapel which was orginally a grain wahrehouse. (visit link)

From Wikipedia is would seem that "Our Lady, Star of the Sea" is an ancient title for the Virgin Mary.

Also from the same source the words 'Star of the Sea' are a translation of the latin - 'Stalla Maris'.
