Notes
  • Significance: Although the building has been ruined, a large collection of plantation records covering the period 1897-1926 has survived. Thus the manufacture of sugar can be examined from the perspective of a typical early Twentieth Century sugarhouse.
  • Unprocessed Field note material exists for this structure: FN-12
  • Survey number: HAER LA-1-A
  • Building/structure dates: ca. 1840 Initial Construction
  • Building/structure dates: 1895- 1900 A
