Hi,

I'n trying to find info relating to Ken Bates development activity on Anegada in the late 60's.

I understand the development was unpopular and was halted. But I'd like to find out more.

Were any books published which cover this period in the islands history?

Do any board members remember the events that surrounded the ill fated development plan? If so I'd be pleased to hear details.

Many Thanks in advance.

If you search "bates" on this link: http://bvinews.com/bvi/2010/11/, you'll find a bit of information about Noel Lloyd, one of the leaders of the movement against the development. Good luck in your search!

Many thanks Crystall.

The articles you directed me to mentioned a documentary on Noel Lloyd called "Noel Lloyd: A patriotic Man".

Thats exactly what I'm looking for, just need a way to track down a copy now.

Andreakaren, thanks for your response.

I managed to get in touch with Jahphix TV who were a big help.

Sorry I didn't respond earlier it's been awhile since I checked the thread.
