The historic Hope lands located on the Liguanea Plain in the southeastern parish of St Andrew, Jamaica, and once the site of one of the island's earliest sugar estates, has had a long history of human settlements dating back to approximately 600 CE. It was not until 1655, however, with the English invasion that the Hope landscape developed into a thriving rural agrarian settlement. By 1960 the Hope landscape was radically transformed from a sugar estate worked by hundreds of enslaved black people to a urban centre of commercial, residential and educational land use.
