Several structures dating to the historical era were documented, these structures are scattered across the proposed area. Most of them are in bad condition, wherein several cracks are visible. These cracks have vertical orientation, which indicates differential movement between the two sets of foundations. In some places the cracks has a 60 degree inclination, which shows that the founding system has subsided. This is in the areas where additions were made to the original building. In several positions, cracks could be located where it was previously repaired. These cracks have not surfaced as yet, but a new crack has formed in close proximity. It is the undersigned's opinion that the building can only be restored if all additions are
upgraded to fit and compliment the original design, which is not possible. Nonetheless, in other structures, the structural stability is not in jeopardy. Hence, the building can be repaired, and in such an instance, reutilisation is recommended.
