Traditional cache near the Rosehall Great House property entry on Northern Highway near Montego Bay.
Rose Hall is a Georgian mansion in Montego Bay, Jamaica, noted for the legend of the White Witch of Rose Hall. The mansion has a stone base and a plastered upper storey, high on the hillside, with a panoramic view over the coast. It was built in the 1770s at a cost of about £30,000. Rose Hall was restored in the 1960s to its former splendor, with mahogany floors, interior windows and doorways, paneling and wooden ceilings. It is decorated with silk wallpaper printed with palms and birds, ornamented with chandeliers and furnished with mostly European antiques. There is a bar downstairs and a restaurant. According to legend, a "white witch" called "Annie Palmer" who murdered three husbands haunts the property, however this apparently is only a legend. The cache marks this beautiful mansion that clearly dominates on the hill overlooking the Cinnamon Hill golf course and can be enjoyed from the highway.
