Two Mile Hill, Saint Michael, Barbados

Two Mile Hill, Saint Michael, Barbados

The area named Two Mile Hill, is located two miles away from Bridgetown, in the Parish of Saint Michael. The Two Mile Hill area was historically one of the railroad stops on the island of Barbados. The railroad was a part of the island's colonial distribution network for the sugar cane industry while the country was under the control of Britain. The location no longer has rail service and is now instead known more so for the Sherbourne Conference Centre located in that area.
