    1848 Lazaretto, Black RockThe history of Barbados states that two acres in St. Michael's parish were purchased for an asylum at £ 271/17/ 6 (Schomburgk’s history) 1848. The buildings were begun but not completed; lunatics were housed here and another appropriation of £2000 was made to build a separate leprosy asylum. The actual start of construction is unknown because records were lost, but 12 July 1853 was given as the date for completion. (Cited from notes provided by Gerald F. Schroedl, Professor of Anthropology, University of Tennessee, Knoxville from Schomburgk’s history at the Barbados Museum and Archives) [Leprosarium] [West Indies]
