Originally a plantation producing sugar, rum, and cattle, the area was worked by enslaved Africans. By the early 19th century, over a hundred were held there. After emancipation in 1838, many remained, shaping the local agricultural economy. Clarendon Park was once part of Jamaica’s railway network, which supported the sugar industry.
