This church was built in 1823 and was damaged in the Christmas slave rebellion of 1831-1832. It was badly damaged by a storm in 1880 but was rebuilt in 1894. It was designed by the minister in charge, Rev.Charles Barron of Scotland and people believe that he cut the glass for all the windows by hand and fitted them in the frames and decorated the walls of the church with verses of scripture. The style of the church is unique. It was again repaired in 1964 and was listed as an historic monument by the Jamaica National Trust Commission.

A plaque reads: "On this ground on June 17 1658, was fought the battle of Rio Nuevo to decide whether Jamaica would be Spanish or English. On one side were the Jamaicans of both black and white races, whose ancestors had come to Jamaica from both Africa and Spain 150 years before. The Spanish forces lost the battle and the island. The Spanish whites fled to Cuba but the black people took to the mountains and fought a long and bloody guerrilla war against the English. This site is dedicated to them all."

Located 31 kilometres from Kingston on the road connecting Kingston to Annotto Bay,the Gardens span 12 acres of land at an elevation of 496 feet. They were established in 1865. The Gardens are heavily populated with birds and a high proportion of the natural vegetation is exotic plants with many ferns and plants from Madagascar, India and the East Indies.

Between 1956 and 1973 this was the home of Sir Noel Coward, the English playwright, actor, songwriter and wit. The English style cottage is set amidst wide lawns on top of a hill with a breath-taking view of the coastline about three miles from Port Maria. On his death he left the property to a friend who gave it to the country. It fell into disrepair and the property was leased by The Jamaica Heritage Trust to Island Outposts. It was meticulously restored and in 1993 was reopened to the public as a museum. Because of Noel Coward's experience with fireflies (peeny wallies) there one evening, he bought the land, built his house and named it Firefly.
