history

In the early 18th century, the Gale estate was here , a family who lived in America and on several West Indies, on Antigua since 1695. Nathaniel Gale († around 1745) owned 120 hectares, which he inherited in 1746 when he married James Gordon over. After slavery ended in 1835, the plantation went bankrupt. Today the place is also called the New Village and is part of Liberta. - Liberta was the starting point for the liberation.
