A
number of ruined buildings on the former Spring Garden estate clearly date to
the period of estate activity in sugar cane production, around the time Thomas
Wedderburn.'s son John was in charge. There are the remains of a spring fed
irrigation system (see photo below), hence the name "Spring Garden". There
are other related structures i.e. aqueducts, a waterwheelhouse etc., but
in overgrown and dilapidated condition.

'Gutter Walk' is
one of the few remaining reminders of the estate as it was in John
Wedderburn's day. It once formed part of
the irrigation system which led from the spring.
