Spring Garden Estate, St. George

Spring Garden Estate, St. George

View of Spring Garden Estate located in the parish of St. George (now divided between St. Mary and Portland). This estate was one of the properties of John Rock Grosett, Esq., M.P. This plantation is contiguous to the sea-shore, and adjoins the left bank of the Spanish River. The great house is placed on a rising ground and judiciously overlooks the works; the mill is turned by a well-supplied water-wheel, and the boiling house contains a double and single set of coppers. The overseer's house and offices, the hospital, and a building for negro children are large and well adapted for their purposes.
