Delaps is an official historic site in Saint Paul, Antigua and Barbuda. It was a sugar plantation established in the 1700s. The sugar mill tower continues to stand although it has since been converted into a water cistern. 213 people were enslaved here and at Long Lane at the time of emancipation.[1][2][3]
