History:
Visual Description: A large three-bay house with high saddle-roof (as for thatch) covering the gable ends which may have been adapted to accommodate a corrugated-iron roof. Plaster scalloped pattern below the eaves and drip mouldings over door and windows. Corners have quoins. Plain plaster surrounds at door and windows. 3x3-panelled double door with three-paned fanlight. 6x6-paned unshuttered window at side, shutters on front window closed. Stone stoep with end-walls and seat, perhaps more recent.. Gable end has loft door and heavy plaster moulding on either side of loft door, with scalloped plaster pattern running below the door but not identical to pattern in front. On left of house is an old Cape-type plastered wall and wagon shed with corrugated-iron doors. A very interesting house of architectural value which should be investigated for proclamation.
