Absentee-owned from 1759 when Henry Dawkins II migrated from Jamaica to Britain. Friendship was located in upper Clarendon, to the west of Edward Long's Lucky valley. It's water mill's central location was enabled by carrying water from a long distance. Friendship was surveyed in1758 by Richard Cradock. The Cradock plan represented the the cane fields of the estate, covering 312 acres, also included were the great house, works and pastures. Higman described the estate 'hilly', with 31 distinct cane fields of variable size and shape. The mill was provided with water by a series of gutters that connected to upstream points of Stony River and a spring at Mamee Gully. Three aqueducts were required to bring water to a dam which ensured a stable supply. Cradock's drawings depicted the mill and a curing house. The works and the great house were set in pasture, further pasture land was required for the livestock. Friendship was one of the lesser Dawkins holdings producing 145 hogsheads and 47 tierces of sugar plus 57 puncheons of rum. Much of the produce was shipped to the Dawkins' commission agents Drake and Long in vessels named after the Dawkins family's great Jamaican estates. This produce was hauled to Salt River - a wharf 20 miles away - where the Dawkins had their own stores, counting house and enslaved boatmen. The extensive Dawkins Papers are located in the National Library of Jamaica. This entry is indebted to B. W. Higman. |
