Splinternuwe planne om die historiese blokhuis langs die Hermonpad buite Wellington van erge verwaarlosing te red, is verlede week op die mees onlangse vergadering van die Wellingtonse erfeniskomitee bespreek.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2019n Afvaardiging wat bestaan het uit senior bestuurslede van die Douglas Green-wynmakery en \u2019n verteenwoordiger van die Wellingtonse toerismebedryf het die byeenkoms van die erfeniskomitee spesiaal oor die toekoms van die blokhuis kom toespreek.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Volgens Tim Hutchinson en Ree du Toit van Douglas Green het hulle organisasie oor die afgelope paar jaar waardevolle ondervinding opgedoen om die historiese waarde van die geboue wat Douglas Green se wynmakerye by Franschhoek en Stellenbosch huisves, te ontwikkel in volwaardige en gewilde toerismebestemmings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Met die onlangse aankoop van die plaas Olyvenhout langs die bestaande eiendomme van Douglas Green buite Wellington, besit die organisasie nou die plaasgrond aangrensend aan die ou blokhuis. Die maatskappy wil nou probeer om die toerisme-waarde van die blokhuis na behore te ontwikkel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Douglas Green besit nie alleen nou die grond rondom die blokhuis nie maar ook die historiese ou plaashuis oorkant die pad waar die maatskappy beoog om \u2019n gewilde gesinsrestaurant te ontwikkel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Indien die nodige toestemming van owerheidswe\u00eb verkry kan word, beoog die maatskappy om die blokhuis en die ou plaashuis gesamentlik te ontwikkel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die blokhuis sal volledig gerestoureer word en binnekant sal die grondvloer moontlik omskep word in \u2019n klein museum wat artefakte sal huisves uit die tyd van die Anglo-Boereoorlog toe die blokhuis gebruik is om die spoorlyn teen moontlike aanvalle deur boeremagte te beskerm. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die boonste vloer sal omskep word in \u2019n proelokaal vir besoekers wat in die wyne wat deur Douglas Green gemaak word, belangstel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n * With the help of Douglas Green, concerted efforts are now being made to restore and protect the historical block-house in Wellington, which dates back to the Anglo Boer War.<\/i><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
