Hendrina is situated approximately 53km north-west of Ermelo, 40km west-south-west of Carolina and 53km south-east of Middelburg.
A number of farm buildings including an open shed, a storage building and a smaller structure possibly dating to the Historical Period occur on the farm Bosmanslaagte 181 JS, approximately 6km north of Hendrina along the N11 road. The structures are constructed out of red brick and sandstone with a corrugated iron roofs. It is not clear if the buildings are currently in use and preservation thereof is fair. The farm Bosmanslaagte was awarded to Abraham Francois Bosman in 1870 and surveyed in 1905. A clear temporal context for the structures is not known but they might be part of original farming infrastructure dating to the first occupation of the farm in the 1870’s. As such, the features are probably older than 60 years and protected heritage resource. The features might add to a better understanding of historical, architectural and social developments in the Hendrina farming landscape and the site is of medium heritage significance. The structures occur approximately 60m from the N11 road to be upgraded and unmitigated impact on the site could be peripheral.
