This site was initially recorded in 1995. It is not an archaeological site per se, but does have human remains. The site occurs in the middle of the afforested area. It was noted as having several unmarked graves of farm labourers. These graves probably relate to ‘Compound 8’ discussed below. No photos were taken in 1995 of these graves. However, the 1964 1:50 000 topographical map clearly show this site and the related ‘compound’ The 2010 survey could not locate any of the graves. Either the graves have been ‘hidden’ by the building rubble, or they have been (partially) removed by
afforestation. Given that the area is still cleared, the graves may still occur under the vegetation.
