Attraction Reviews: St.Nicholas Abbey

13th October, 2011

St. Nicholas Abbey, St. Peter, Barbados- Mike Toy

St. Nicholas Abbey, located in St. Peter, is one of the oldest homes in Barbados, surviving in almost its original state. Estimated to be built between 1650 and 1660, St. Nicholas Abbey was named after George Nicholas who automatically inherited (due to matrimonial law of the period) the house when he married Susanna Berringer, Daughter of Jehu. George soon ran into debt and in 1730 lost St. Nicholas. The house is currently owned by Barbadian architect Larry Warren.

St. Nicholas Abbey resembles the English Jacobean manor houses of the first half of the seventeenth Century. The Jacobean Style is the second phase of renaissance architecture and was named after James I of England, whose reign it was associated with. St. Nicholas' only other counterparts in the Western Hemisphere are Drax Hall in Barbados and Bacon's Castle in Virgina.
