News Americas, Friday, Aug. 1, 2014: Can you guess where this is?
As Barbados gets ready to celebrate in Crop Over festivities this weekend, this view is of the magnificent Gun Hill Signal Station and Lion in St. George parish. It offers a view of the entire island and is the finest of a series of signal stations that were built on island in 1818. Nearby the island’s iconic lion, which was carved out of a single piece of rock by a British officer at the Station in 1868, still stands watch of the coast.
