Three Chimneys Walking Talk & Tour by Ormond Beach Historical Society

Summary

Originally known as the Swamp Settlement, this historic site was established in 1768 on a portion of 20,000 acres that were granted by King George III to a wealthy Scottish slave trader named Richard Oswald. The 300 cleared acres, with several substantial buildings, was the first successful British sugar plantation, sugar mill and rum distillery in the United States, and was operated until England ceded Florida back to Spain after the Revolutionary War. This walking lecture is FREE but registration is requested. PLEASE NOTE: The entrance to the historic site is located at 715 W Granada Boulevard, which is just east of the Granada Professional Center located at 725 W Granada Boulevard.
