Reference Code: GBR/0115/RCS/Y30771A/31

Scope and Contents

286 x 224 mm. A view showing the working premises on the Brothers Estate, set among lush vegetation in the hills of St John's parish, north of St George's. This estate, owned by the donor of the album (refer to originator details), was of about 590 acres and seems to have yielded a far richer output of cocoa, spices, coffee, nuts and sugar than many of the larger estates. See production figures for 1894 in Drayton (1896), pp 11-12.
