Show Notes

The Barbados Advocate highlighted Harmony Hall, St. Michael, one of Barbados' oldest and finest historic homes. Believed to date back to the early 1700s, the property was once home to physician and public servant Sir John Hudson and later became the headquarters of the Barbados Workers' Union. Despite surviving major hurricanes and centuries of change, Harmony Hall remained a celebrated example of Barbadian architecture and a lasting link to the island's colonial past.
