Stables are first mentioned in connection with the farm in the Insolvency Inventory of
Cornelis Brink in 1835, which lists “stables for sixteen horses” (CA MOIB 2/426 No. 15), however the differing alignment and length of the stable building to the main house and cellar, as well as its physical distance from the other two buildings, indicates a conceptual break between the linear werf and this building. The stable building was investigated in order to ascertain where it fits into the rest of the werf, and whether this was the building mentioned in the inventory

Directions:
The farm Solms Delta is located on the Delta Road off the R45 in the Groot Drakenstein, 15km west of Franschhoek.
