                          “It was probably first built and occupied by one of the Rochers about 1830,
                                             and is now occupied by Mr. Smit.”

                       “The title deeds were made out to the widow of the second Frederick Russouw in

                       1743, but the house, of which only a portion could be photographed, was probably
                        built before that date. The house, gardens and lawns are very beautiful, and the
                        position delightful. A wonderful view of Hout Bay is obtained from the house.”
