Located on a hill with breathtaking views of the Caribbean Sea, Greenwood Great House was built in the 1780s by Richard Barrett, a wealthy plantation owner. It was one of four great houses owned by the Barrett family, including nearby Cinnamon Hill, home to Elizabeth Barrett Browning’s great-grandparents. Greenwood stands as one of the best-preserved examples of Jamaican plantation homes, offering insight into the island’s colonial past, slavery, and the Barrett family legacy.
