- The Old Mill Cultural Centre was initially used for sugar and rum production until the collapse of the Dominica sugar industry. In 1964, the estate was sold to the Government of Dominica. By 1976, a portion of the mill was allocated to the National Arts Council, which transformed it into a cultural centre with the help of a grant from the British Development Division. (pass by)
- Dominica Coconut Products, started in the 1960s by Phillip Nassief, has evolved over the years and operates under the name DCP Colgate-Palmolive Company.

- Located in Salisbury just off of the main west coast highway, this estate has a history dating back to pre-war years, Dominica's major rum distillery has seen up and downs. The Macoucherie Estate has been in the Shillingford family for several generations and is now the only (official) distillery on the island to produce rum from local cane. Not any cane however is up to the job - Macoucherie uses only that grown on its estate. Producing 10,000 gallons annually, and up to four types of bottled rum, it's a large operation. But the processes are essentially the same as that of the small-scale operation producing moonshine. (pass by)
-
Fort ShirleyFort Shirley is part of the Cabrits National Park in the north of Dominica and can be considered Dominica’s most important historic site and was the scene of the famous revolt of the 8th West India Regiment in 1802. The British undertook most of the construction of the Fort but the French made significant additions during their occupation of Dominica from 1778 – 1784. Together they amassed a garrison comprising one fort, seven gun batteries, seven cisterns, powder magazines, ordnance storehouses, bakeries, iron forge, barracks and other officers’ quarters to house and provide for over 600 men on regular duty along with their support staff of artisans and slaves.
