Address:
Judith's Fancy, St Croix, USVI

Estate Judith's Fancy, subdistrict of Saint Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands, 4 miles northwest of Christiansted is a former sugarcane plantation whose great house was built in 1733. Its surviving 3.6 acres property was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1978. The listing included six contributing sites.The site is significant for being the location of government headquarters during the French occupation of St. Croix during 1651-65, under the Knights of Malta's ownership, as well as for preserving remnants of typical buildings of a sugar plantation. The property includes stonework ruins from a sugar factory, from a windmill which drew water, from a chimney of a later steam mill, and a small house. The factory building is T-shaped, with a two-story section being 22 by 96 feet in plan. An 18.5 by 36 feet wing was the boiling room. A one-story 10.67 by 15 feet cookhouse with a charcoal stove is also attached.
