History

Montpelier Sugar Factory[4]

Montpelier Estate, (c.1890 to 1954) was one of three sugar factories in Antigua and was known for its muscovado sugar. It had a buff hose located on a hill near the village of Saint Philips, having a view of the Montpelier estate and surrounding fields.

In the 1890s, it was considered one of the premier muscovado sugar factories in the entire Caribbean.

It was first owned by Capt. William Harman RN.

2011 Census (Brownes Bay)
