Trenchtown


 

Trenchtown is a neighbourhood located in Kingston, the capital and largest city of Jamaica. It gets its name from a large open-trenched sewer that runs through the neighborhood. The majority of the residents here live in squalor and infant mortality is rampant. Famous Jamaicans who lived in this area include Bob Marley, Peter Tosh, Bunny Wailer as well as numerous other Reggae musicians.
