What is recorded here

This black commemorative plaque records: Sugar House Lane. In 1776 a Sugar House was established here, where raw sugar from the Americas was refined for resale. This was one of several businesses in Aberdeen which were involved in the trans-Atlantic trade of slave-produced goods. Sugar House Lane was eventually formed in the ground which once belonged to the Sugar House Company. Recorded plaque organisation: Aberdeen City Council.
