An avenue of (predominantly) fig trees was planted heading in a north-easterly direction
from the farmstead (Figure 8). The avenue comprised two parallel rows of fig trees with
trees spaced approximately 3.5m to 4.0m within each row. The avenue extended from
close to the eastern werf wall at GPS point KRP 2a for c. 105m to the NE, at which point
(KRP 2b) the avenue turned to the east and continued for another 156m to GPS point KRP
2c.

At GPS point KRP 2c the southern row of the avenue stops and only the northern row of
fig trees continues to the east. Some oak trees were also included at this point in the
avenue and there are also other younger oaks in the centre of the avenue, though these
are likely to have been intrusive (i.e. not deliberately planted). This is also the point where
39a field boundary wall converges with the tree alignment and continues to the WSW
(towards KRP 3d), possibly representing an original gateway into the farmstead. The
northern row of fig trees continues to the east for c. 720m where it terminates at GPS point
KRP 2d, with an overall length of c. 982m from the werf wall to this point.

The tree alignment is roughly parallel to the current route of the highway R355 and most
likely represents the original wagon route approaching the farmstead from the east.
