Residential

"There was already a house on this erf in 1799 when it was deducted from erf J (granted in 1704). In 1812 it was bought by RFL Neethling, the owner of Grosvenor House, and in 1845 passed to his son CL Neethling. (Source: Fransen & Cooke) The door was previously off-centre, leading to a passage taken off the voorkamer, and the eaves had been raised to take a corrugated iron roof. The door was moved and the house re-thatched during recent restoration work."
