Six years after its closure, the Rose Hall Estate is to officially return to grinding today, bringing a sense of relief and life back to the community of Canje and by extension the county of Berbice. 

After the closure of the estate in 2017 by the APNU+AFC government, workers were left in immense economic hardship which also affected the entire Canje community.

Estate Manager, Vijay Goberdhan yesterday told the Sunday Stabroek in an exclusive interview that the estate will officially return to operation today.
