Alley: Attractions and more...

Alley is home to the oldest church in the state, St Peter’s Anglican Church. Built 1671, it served as the church for the earlier Parish of Vere. The modest red brick building has a brick-walled churchyard, surrounded by huge cotton trees, known to be hundred of years old.

Every Sunday morning, the cast-iron church bell tugs, calling all worshipers, while inside, one of the oldest pipe-organs in the Caribbean, plays in tune. Interestingly, the bell, weighing almost three quarters of a ton, was brought to Jamaica from London in 1857. The church and the churchyard, with the tombstones and monuments of some very early-settlers, is a National Heritage Site.

The church serves as the main attraction in the town, but close to the church, in the district of Amity Hall, rests the Moneymusk Library. A must-visit site, the library was earlier known as the Moneymusk Windmill, is the only brick windmill in Jamaica.
