SAM SHARP SQUARE STOP: This tour takes you to downtown Montego Bay. Your first 10-minute stop will be at Sam Sharp Square. This area got its name from a freed slave who carried the same name and who led one of the bloodiest uprisings in Jamaica on Christmas Day in the year 1831. In this area, there is a statue of Sam Sharp and other slaves who were severely punished in the year 1832 for the Christmas Day uprising that took place. Feel free to exit the vehicle and browse around. There is also the “Cage”, which was originally constructed from wood in the year 1806. However, it was later reconstructed from bricks. The cage was used as a holding area for runaway Slaves who were held there until they were sent back to their plantations. It was also used as a holding area for vagrants and rowdy seamen who would get drunk and behave disorderly.

This Anglican Church, built in 1775, is one of the oldest churches in the Montego Bay area. It boasts an amazing architecture and some of the contents dating back as far as over 200 years.
