  • Watch, as members within the community of May Pen share their experiences of living in May Pen with you.
    May Pen is the capital and largest town in the parish of Clarendon in Middlesex County, Jamaica. It is located on the bank of the Rio Minho River (which is Jamaica's longest River) May Pen also has a major market centre for the Parish.
    Did we mentioned that the clock tower is one of the main attractions in the town centre. According to research, the clock was erected in 1908 after the death of a doctor Robert Glaister Samuel Bell who drowned while crossing the Rio Minho river in 1904. It was a memorial plaque to the late Dr. Bell and was dedicated also to World War I (1914-1918).
