The house was fairly modest for the area at the time, just four bedrooms, kitchen and a huge dining room. When George and Lawrence arrived in Bridgetown, Barbados was a tightly controlled established society with a population ratio of four African slaves to every one white Barbadian. The second floor of the house was added sometime after 1810, long after George's visit, and now houses a more general display of Barbadian history.
