There is nothing like Abeokuta on the entire island and there is the “Olumo Rock”, this rock is found in one other place in the world, Abeokuta, Nigeria, Africa!
The first slaves that were taken to the Parish of Westmoreland were brought to this Plantation from Abeokuta, Nigeria.
The Park itself occupies 13 acres of land on a hill that was the original Plantation Yard.
The remains of the Great House still stand magnificently fashioned from pure cut 2' thick stone.
On the property is the oldest swimming pool in Jamaica which goes back three hundred years.
Mineral Water is supplied to this historic pool and a “Kiddie Pool” via an aqueduct ¼ mile long.
