It's surprising how much of the machinery and construction are still intact after so many decades and under constant assault from the elements.
A highway goes right through the old site these days. |
They keep it in good repair. |
What really surprises me is how well the iron machinery has held up. |
The sugar was produced through a series of boilers and evaporators. Tough, hot, back-breaking toil. Much of it was done by women. |
Remains of evaporators. Each succession of processing would render the concoction closer and closer to pure cane sugar. |
