Verdmont
Verdmont, located at 6 Verdmont Lane, Collector’s Hill, Smith’s Parish, Bermuda is a historic house built c. 1710, now operated as a museum by the Bermuda National Trust. It is essentially structurally unchanged since it was built and it became a museum in 1956. The house is listed as part of Bermuda's "African Diaspora Heritage Trail", part of UNESCO's Slave Route Project.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.gotobermuda.com/uploadedFiles/GetHere/MapsAndBrochures/SubContent/ADHT.pdf )〕
In the 17th century, before the house was built, the property belonged to John Sayle, who left Bermuda for South Carolina and became its first governor.
The house was built by John Dickinson who was a shipowner and was the speaker of Bermuda's House of Assembly from 1707 to 1710.〔 p. 134〕 Among its later owners was the painter and judge John Green. The house has four large chimneys and contains collections of antique Bermuda cedarwood furniture, Bermuda portraits, and English and Chinese porcelain.〔
The period-style gardens have a panoramic view over Bermuda's south shore and include roses, herbs, and other plants cultivated in the 18th century.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.museumregister.com/bermuda/verdmont.html )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.bnt.bm/Places_to_Visit/verdmont_museum.php )〕
