INTRODUCTION

The town of St. George Grenada, has been the subject of many studies over many years, due to it unique characteristic such as fish scale roofs and Georgian Architecture.  It has also been described for over a century as the most picturesque town in the entire Caribbean.  Moreover it is sometimes described as a time capsule as one can traced the development of this town over the last three centuries.  Of great interest, is the fact that historic fabric of this town still in existence, as many structures were either built upon or added on to. Likewise many other features, such as old water fountains and wells and old streets or alleys, could still be found hidden within building compounds or simply blocked by brick walls.

Despite the pressures brought on by modern day development, such as the introduction of the motor vehicle and the need for additional space, the town has retained its scale and most of its skyline. As such, the town is still within its boundaries established between 1700 and 1788 and buildings built after the last great fire of 1792.   Not only had the town of St. George received special mention from the Georgian Society during the 1930s and 1950s, but also in 1988, it was nominated as one of the monuments of the Wider Caribbean.
