Pembroke

Pembroke is the eighth in the Trust’s Architectural Heritage series and was written by Bermudian historian and academic Dr. Clarence Maxwell. It explores the history of the parish from Bermuda’s early days and covers many of Pembroke’s buildings, ranging from Government House to humbler houses on The Glebe Road and the North Shore and from ancient vernacular buildings to the modern Bacardi building on Pitts Bay Road. Interesting topics such as the Black Watch Well, the early ‘common lands’, wooden houses and many other subjects are covered and the late Edward Chappell, Retired Roberts Director Emeritus of Architectural and Archaeological Research at Colonial Williamsburg wrote penetrating analyses of several of the buildings.
