On most sugar estates like Port Mourant, Skeldon, Albion, etc the new houses were built around 1959 when the logies were removed.
Even after the new houses were built and the old short stilt houses demolished, a couple logies were still present in Skeldon. One was by Kingstion, near the Skeldon Estate Community Center, the other one was across Banya Koker sideline dam(behind where Novelty Cinema now stands)from Skeldon Scots School. This one was commonly referred to as Bull Hall. The one behind the Vedic Mandir was demolished earlier.

Are there any logies existing anywhere in Guyana? Would be nice to show my son when he gets older so he can know his history and what his forefathers endured.
