Nanny Town, also known as Nanny's Town or Nanny's Town, was a settlement established by the Maroons in Jamaica during the 18th century. It is located in the Blue Mountains, near the parish of Portland. The town was named after the legendary leader Nanny of the Maroons, who is a significant figure in Jamaican history for her role in resisting British colonization. Today, the site is a historical landmark that reflects the Maroons' fight for freedom and autonomy.
