JUL ? 3 *- -~f APPENDIX fr. ANNABERG HISTORIC DISTRICT DESCRIPTION Annaberg Historic District is located on the North Shore of St. John immediately east of Mary Point. The mill and factory are sited on a knoll on the shoreline with an elevation of 102' above mean sea level. The site commands an expansive view of the British Virgin Islands and the extensive ruins are a conspicuous feature of the lanscape. The site is reached by the North Shore Road that con- nects it to Frederiksdal and Mary Point to the west. Immediately below Annaberg the road has been washed out by sea action but formerly continued east on to Leinster Bay Estate. Retaining walls on the east and north side of the site re- gulate the top levels of the knoll and provide the setting for the masonry cone of the former windmill, the horsemill and the bagasse shed. The factory ruins are 15' south of the horsemill on the downward sloping landside of the knoll. Frag- ments of 16 slave cabins can be discerned on the west and north slopes of the knoll. In addition to these elements, Annaberg also has the ruined remains of an expound, stable, two bake ovens, a cook house, 3 elevated cisterns connected by aquaducts, two unidentified structures and a well and a drinking trough. Annaberg Plantation was one of several plantations on St. John owned in the 1720ties and 30ties by Frederik Moth, the first Danish Governor 6f St. Croix and later the Governor General of all the Danish West Indies. It was under cultivation by 1731 and in 1780 the factory site had 10 small buildings, two medium sized ones and two larger ones but apparently no horsemill. The estate was acquired by Robert Milner in 1786 and he may have built the Annaberg horsemill shown on the 1800 Oxholm map of St. John. The plantation became in the early decades of the 19th century one of the biggest sugar producers on St. John and its facilities expanded to their present impressive proportions. It was then owned by Government Adjudant Thomas Sheen. In 1827 the estate was acquired by Governor Hans Henrik Berg who held it until his death in 1862. Shortly thereafter cultivation of sugar cane was abandoned and the estate became a cattle farm. Although the remains of the existing factory cannot be dated precisely, its plan organization belong to the type that came into common use during the last decades of the 18th century. The building shows evidence of alterations and additions and the storage and curing wing of the factory exhibit building practices of con- siderable variances with the boiling house. The same is the case with other major units of the factory site. The windmill postdates 1800 and from its type and construction probably dates from the second or third decade of the 19th century. In all probability the construction of the various buildings span the last decades of the 18th century and the first half of the 19th century. As stated above the ruins exhibit varying building practices but in addition have preserved architectural details and styling of considerable interest and of dif- ferent periods. The extent of the ruins and the many functions they represent of a large sugar producing plantation well illustrate the different phases and the complexity of its operation. v STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE The significance of Annaberg Historic District is the relatively well preserved remains of a large and productive sugar plantation. They illustrate the com- plexity of the sugar productions as well as its different phases from collections of surface water to curing and storage of the new sugar. They also, indirectly, through the extensive and impressive remains of the development of the factory site illustrate the profits that might be gained from this quasi-agricultural- manufacturing activity.

VERBAL BOUNDARY DESCRIPTION From a point on the road to Annaberg 100 feet west of the Drinking Trough in the mangrove swamp below and west of Annaberg, the boundary line of the Historic District leads due north for twenty (20') feet to the low water line of the shore and then easterly along the shore for about 1100 feet to the mouth of the inter- mittent stream bed east of Annaberg and then southerly following the east tri- butary of the streambed for 1050 feet and then due west for 600 feet to the stream bed of the west tributary and from there due northwest for 1100 feet to the starting point on the Mary Point-Annaberg road. The boundaries of Annaberg Historic District are the natural barrier of the sea towards the north and a streambed to the east. Towards the south and west they are straight lines connecting fixed points so as to include all elements of the historic resource and its setting. JUL 2 3 198!

Physical Description; Annaberg is located on the North Shore ol' St. J.o_hn_uijnu;_(U- ately east of Mary Point. The mill and factory are sited on a knoll on tin- shorrline .with an elevation of 102 feet above mean sea level. A continuous rubble ..mason ry_ retaining wall varying in height from 5' to 20' controls the grades of the top oir the knoll of Annaberg Mill site. On the north side of the site it extends east-west for ,300'. towards the east it extends south for 100' and then continues generally in a southwesterly direction for 70'. Within the walls the highest grade is towards iho east where a level platform 80 by 110' provides the setting for the windmill cone. from this level the grades slope gently down towards the east and southeast. A gynall vanltfd cell is built into the southeast corner of the platform and is accessible from grade level below the retaining wall. Construction date is unknown but in its present form presumedly contemporary with the early 19th century windmill.

Subsequent to the discontinuance of Annaberg plantation's' sugar production a small wood dwelling was erected on the mill platform with a tdetached masonry cook house.
