Our special guest on episode 10 of Jamaica's Tourism Titans, along with his wife, is the owner of a great house that sits high on a hill with an astonishing view of the Caribbean Sea. This great house built in the 1780s by the enormously wealthy Richard Barrett, cousin of the famous poet Elizabeth Barrett Browning, is still standing tall and preserved as part of a rich cultural heritage by Thomas Bob Betton. He was recognized by the council of the Institute of Jamaica with the Bronze Musgrave Medal for his contribution to the field of heritage preservation and by the National Association of Returning Residents for relentless work and commitment to restoring and preserving Greenwood Greathouse, which incidentally was declared a National Monument by the Jamaican National Heritage Trust in 2001.
