Statement of Significance
This is a highly intact example of a building type that occurs throughout Ida's Valley, although in
most other cases has been altered. The building has representational and contextual
significance. The association of Ida's Valley with the forced removals at "Die Vlakte" lend the site
additional socio-historical significance
Landscape Significance
Mature oak tree on pavement contributes to the streetscape.
