Heading north uphill from the sugar mill the main road sweeps past sugar fields before reaching a magnificent canopy of mahogany trees at Cherry Tree Hill.

It's worth stopping to look behind you across the east coast and out to the Atlantic Ocean - one of the most spectacular views on the island. There is actually no record of cherry trees having existed here; the local legend that they were all chopped down because passers-by kept stealing the fruit sounds a little unlikely.
