Morne Bruce

Morne Bruce is a hillside enclave located in Roseau, Dominica.

[1] Morne Bruce is accessible by road or via Jack's Walk, a trail that begins in the Dominica Botanical Gardens.

[2][3] It was named after James Bruce, a captain of the Royal Engineers who designed many of Dominica's forts in the 1700s.

[4][5][6] The hill was once home to a military garrison that protected Roseau from the 1770s to 1854 from the French.

[4] The idea of establishing the Roseau Botanic Gardens near Morne Bruce was conceived in 1889 by the British Crown Government.
