A Brief History

 

Liberty Hill Great House sits a top one of the great mountains of St. Ann Parish just minutes from the historical town of St. Ann’s Bay. 

St. Ann is one of the oldest populated areas in the island of Jamaica tracing back to 600 - 650 A.D. It is believed to be the earliest Taino/Arawak settlement in Jamaica. It is also believed that these indigenous people of Jamaica, the Arawak Indians lived on the site of Liberty Hill Great House.  The Tainos found the property to be a useful vantage point, (1200 ft. elevation) ideal for observing approaching ships.


When Christopher Columbus first came to Jamaica in 1494, he landed on the shores of St. Ann. He returned to Jamaica on his fourth voyage and was eventually marooned for one year at St. Ann's Bay (June 1503 - June 1504.)


Today, St Ann’s Bay is a modern city, rich with historical sites.  It is one of the few places you can still hear the old church bells ring as a call to worship and toll for those who have passed on.  On any given Friday or Saturday evening you can expect to hear a waft of Reggae music drifting across the mountains from the town signaling and celebrating the end of the work week…it is truly then “Jamaica No Problem.”


St. Ann is the birthplace of two of Jamaica’s Heroes, Marcus Garvey and Bob Marley.


St. Ann’s Bay is only 10 minutes away from Ocho Rios, the tourism capital of the Caribbean.
