Historical records show that there were three places registered as Madey in St. Patrick, Madey, Madey Pere and Madey Gavri.  This building is located in Madey Pere, in the area known as ‘Cedars' in Sauteurs.  During the time of the Cession from French to British, it was a 352 acres sugar plantation.  The new British owner was Michael Scott Esq. By 1772, the estate had a reduced size of 230 acres, comprising sugar canes, pasture lands and provisions and with a compliment of 160 slaves, 11 old subjects, one (1) old works and one (1) water mill.  Between 1801 and 1824, the estate now under the ownership of James Law was expanded to 256 acres and was still engaged in the production of sugar.

The estate remained in the hands of the Law family until January 1867, when like many others that came under the Encumbered Estates Court Act, it was owned by Theophilus Law to the Kent and Gentle Family.  However, by the 1950s the estate was reduced to just 114 acres and engaged mainly in the production of cocoa.  It was later sold to Joseph Charles who later sold it to a church organization called Youths with a Mission. The property has again been resold however, the name of the new owner is being investigated.

Although the building stands very impressive, an archaeological investigation is need in order to ascertain the parts of the house which is original and which are the various parts that were added or changed over the years.
