im from Alley, South Coast
Deep in the central sugar-producing regions of the Clarendon plains is the small village of Alley, a tiny community at times dwarfed by the towering sugar cane stalks of the Moneymusk Estate. Since the seventeenth century, Alley has been an important sugar village, located in the heart of the Clarendon sugar belt and closely associated with the neighbouring Moneymusk Sugar Estate. As the capital of the parish formerly known as Vere, Alley is home to one of the oldest churches in Jamaica, St Peterâ€™s Anglican Church. Built in 1671, the church is a modest red brick structure set within a brick-walled churchyard surrounded by enormous cotton trees estimated to be hundreds of years old. Every Sunday, the three-quarter ton cast-iron church bell calls the faithful to worship, and within the church, one of the oldest pipe organs in the Caribbean still plays in tune. St Peterâ€™s is a National Heritage Site, both for the building itself and the churchyard, where there are many old tombstones and monuments to early English settlers.

A short distance away from the church in the district of Amity Hall, still in the heart of cane country, is another curious and historic structure, the old Moneymusk windmill, now the Moneymusk Library. The sugar works at Amity Hall was the centre of operations of the estate for over a century before the newer, more modern factory was built a number of kilometres away from the old site.

Although today the larger community of Lionel Town has overshadowed Alleyâ€™s importance, the village is still a significant reservoir of Jamaican heritage and history.

Interesting Story: The church bell at St Peterâ€™s Anglican Church in Alley weighs approximately three quarters of a ton and is solid cast iron. Brought to Jamaica from London in 1857, the bell, which still tolls on Sunday mornings and on special occasions, was crafted by the same company that created Londonâ€™s most famous landmark, â€˜Big Benâ€™.

Famous For: Alley, like many other rural villages in southern Clarendon, is surrounded by the vast cane fields of the Moneymusk Estate, one of the largest sugar-producing operations in Jamaica. The area is particularly fertile, being naturally irrigated by the many tributaries of the Milk River and the Rio Minho.

Must See: St Peterâ€™s Church is certainly worth a stop, but do also stop at the Moneymusk Library in nearby Amity Hall. The library is located within a brick windmill that was once the centre of the sugar factory works. This is the only brick windmill in Jamaica â€“ all other windmills were made of locally quarried limestone. To date, historians are still trying to understand why the owners of the estate put themselves to such great expense to import bricks from England, but in the meanwhile, the building is open to the public, allowing passers-by to make their own estimations
