Octagon Villa, Antigua, 1850. Creator: Unknown.

Octagon Villa, Antigua, 1850. 'This neat specimen of house-building in Antigua is the property and country residence of Andrew Coltart, Esq. It is situated one mile from St. John's, on Gray's Hill, at an elevation of about 300 feet above the level of the sea, and commands a beautiful view of the city and harbour. It has eight sides, as its name implies; and, being nearly surrounded with jalousie windows, it admits the refreshing sea breeze. The dome at the top is roofed with galvanised corrugated iron, and gives a pleasing effect to the structure'. From "Illustrated London News", 1850.
