Red Stone Hills cottage

Somehow a typical South African cottage. The gable is reminiscent of Dutch architecture which is very prevalent in the Cape. It was built in 1888 which is old for South Africa. And yes I know they did not have cable in 1888. This was taken spontaneously so no tripod to ward off the puffadders but handheld while I carefully traipsed up the hill in my crocs. Must have been mad.
