Nestled in the foothills of St. Catherine hills between the Liguanea and Vere plains, and equidistant from (Jamaica’s old capital) Spanish Town in the east and May Pen in the west, lies the growing town of Old Harbour and its environs.

The entire Old Harbour area falls within the political boundaries of South Western St. Catherine, and was once called Puerto De-Las Vace by Christopher Columbus. In fact it was Christopher Columbus who declared that the aborigines of Old Harbour were found to be the most intelligent and most civilized of all those he had met in the Antilles. Approximately three miles south of the main town of Old Harbour lies the popular village of Old Harbour Bay which is famous for its “Bammy and Fried Fish” and is home for Jamaica’s largest power generating plant.

Because of the ever growing population, with an influx of new residents, coupled with new housing and business developments, we may now agree that Old Harbour is not “OLD” any more. Yes, this area has become “NEW”- new to many of its former citizens who have not been back for a very long time since migrating to foreign lands. Perhaps the area too is new to the level of crime experienced in recent times, and such criminal activities are perhaps surfacing themselves as the diverse population continues to breed strange and unwanted individuals who have now made our once tranquil community their permanent place of abode.

Over the past 500 years, the main town of Old Harbour, together with its surrounding districts, have experienced considerable growth in population. For example, the 1991 figures from the Department of Statistics indicated that the main area of Old Harbour and it outskirts accounted for just over 31,300 with those over 18 years old accounting for about 17,300 of that number. Now, according to statistics from the Planning of Jamaica, the town of Old Harbour alone has a population of roughly 30,000, and is expected to realize an increase to over 55,000 by the year 2030 if the growth trend continues. In addition, the village of Old Harbour Bay is now believed to have reached, or even surpassed the 10,000 mark. Perhaps the Old Harbour area may best be remembered in the history of Jamaica for its monumental landmarks and historical spots. Ranking high among its landmarks are: St. Phillips and St. Dorothy’s Churches at Old Harbour Bay and Church Pen respectively.

According to historical notes, 5t Dorothy’s Church – also known as “Tamarind Tree” Church, was called “Old Harbour Barn” up until 1846. Along with St. Peter’s Church at Alley in Clarendon, St. Dorothy’s rank among the oldest Churches in the Caribbean. Then, there remains the famous Colbeck Castle – approximately two miles northwest of Old Harbour town. Its massive brick and stone ruins still stand to the full original height in open country. The Castle was built towards the end of the seventeenth century and shares with Rose Hall Castle (Montego Bay) the distinction of being the largest and best constructed of the ancient houses that have survived in Jamaica.
And, how can we forget the once famous “Little Ascott” racetrack. Yes, it was Jamaica’s first major racetrack, and was located at Ascott Drive in Old Harbour. In addition to large industries, farming enterprises and business institutions, entrepreneurship of small and large nature have grown considerably, and several business operations have established themselves strategically within the area. Educational Institutions too are playing their developmental roles, as Basis, Elementary and High Schools, together with Tertiary Academies now serve the area’s needs reasonably well.

In the main town of Old Harbour, one no longer has to wait till Christmas Eve to become entangled in vehicular and human traffic. An all-year nightmare continues to confront frustrated commuters from near and far even with the newly installed traffic light in the center of this town. And notwithstanding the available bypassing highway, passers-by seemed destined to follow their urge and the dictates of their stomach as they worm their way through East & West Streets to secure their favorite meals from the array of Jerk stalls, KFC and “Juci Patties” stores and of course our mouth-watering “Bammy and Fried Fish” (At Mango Ground in the west).

Finally, it may be reasonably concluded that the Old Harbour area has come a long way since the visit of Christopher Columbus. And indeed, with such historical background and development, we can be justly proud of that tiny piece Jamaica within the South Western constituency of St. Catherine as we call it: “Horne Sweet Home”.
