at

| Sugar
used
the
be
the
main
industry
when
there
were
slaves
to
do
the
bulk
of
the
work.
Slaves
were
brought
in
from
West
Africa.
On
1830
slavery
was
abolished
and
the
sugar
industry
declined.
In
1960
the
last
sugar
factory
closed.
This
image
shows
the
waterwheel
that
was
part
of
the
sugar
mill.
Bananas
soon
took
over
and
the
main
industry.
80%
of
the
workers
are
involved
in
the
banana
trade
and
it
makes
up
40%
of
their
exports. |
 |
| When
the
sugar
mill
closed
someone
stopped
the
mill
by
putting
a
huge
spanner
in
the
works
-
hence
the
modern
saying
"Put
a
spanner
in
the
works"
to
stop
something
working. |
