18th October, 2011
Codrington college, St.John, Barbados.

Our second feature in this segment is Codrington College, which can be considered quite difficult to find and as we say "Off The Beaten Track". This college is perched on the picturesque hillside of St. John and a feeling of tranquility and serenity surrounds you as you enter the driveway lined with cabbage palm trees. Take a look below and indulge yourself in the beauty and wonder of Codrington College!

Codrington College is the oldest Anglican theological college in the Western Hemisphere and is the perfect example of the architectural, natural, educational and historical tradition of Barbados. Not only does Codrington College boast of educational heritage as it was opened as a grammar school in 1745 and then progressed to a university level institution in 1830, but it also possesses beautiful natural surroundings. The calm lily pond is a famous feature of Codrington College along with the various species of palm trees scattered along the lush grass of the property.
