1700's Abandoned Cotton Plantation Ruins(Turks and Caicos Islands)
**My Apologizes on Video Quality, upload was done from the island and internet service was slow, making video look distorted and glitchy. Hopefully the content of the video however is still good.**
Ruins of an abandoned cotton plantation. Plantation was started by British loyalist who fled the colonies after they lost the war. This is the oldest national landmark, which is man made, still in existence on the islands.
Cheshire Hall Plantation History:
The best preserved set of plantation-era ruins on Providenciales and thus the most important site for cultural heritage on the island.
The Loyalist were original American colonists who remained faithful to England during the Revolutionary War. By 1778, when the British armies pulled out of the southern states, thousands of Loyalist abandoned their holdings there and fled, along with their slaves, to British-held Florida and later to the Bahamas, which then included the Turks & Caicos Islands.
Thomas Stubbs, brother of Wade Stubbs owner of Wade’s Green Plantation (Bellefield) convinced Thomas to seek his fortune in the Caicos Islands. Thomas Stubbs settled on Providenciales (then known as Blue Caicos) in the late 1700s and name his plantation after his home county. The buildings were constructed from locally cut limestone.
Up to the early 1800s, Cheshire Hall was the most important site on Providenciales and at its height was comprised of about five thousand acres and employed hundreds of slaves.
Cheshire Hall has several ship graffiti inscribed on a lower exterior wall at the rear of the (main) building.
Cheshire Hall is recognized as the most important of the pre-modern historical sites on Providenciales.

Conch Bar Caves | Turks & Caicos
I went on a little adventure in my home backyard and found the Conch Bar Caves on Middle Caicos is the largest non-submerged cave system in the Bahamas-Turks and Caicos island chain and is a Turks and Caicos national park. The cave system is named after the village of Conch Bar nearby.

The Turks and Caicos Islands, archipelagos comprised of 40 low-lying and mostly undeveloped islands boast miles of white powdery beaches, superb diving, accommodations, and gourmet restaurants. Much of the underwater excitement is found off the Turks, where wall dives are outstanding, and along West Caicos and Provo. Sport fishing is a big international draw, and the mangrove salt flats offer a prime habitat for bonefish.
Providenciales (known as Provo) is the hub for tourism. The island's crowning glory is Grace Bay, a 12 mile stretch of velvety sand. Also on Provo, bird watchers enjoy acres of inland lakes frequented by white herons and pink flamingos. Just a dozen miles from Provo is North Caicos, which receives the most rainfall, making it notably greener with tall trees and lush vegetation. The southern part of North Caicos is swampy, with broad estuaries that are home to a vast colony of West Indian flamingoes. North Caicos is popular with vacation-home buyers, especially around Whitby, with its stunning seven-mile beach.
