Fusilier Road In Barbados Courtesy Of The Scottish

I had a trip to Gun Hill Signal Station yesterday, which is located in the St George in Barbados and it wasn’t too bad a wee trip. I love visiting historic places and looking around them, I find it a great insight into the past.

The picture above is the road leading up to Gun Hill Signal Station and it is called Fusilier Road in Honour of the Royal Scots Fusiliers, the 21st regiment, who built the road during their stay at Gun Hill from September 1862 until February 1863.

I kind of felt back home as I walked along this road built by Scotsman with the rain lashing down on me, it was like a rainy day back in Scotland. I must admit I enjoyed the walk in the rain, it was a cooling respite from the sun.
