7.5. Identified Sites of Significance Residential Buildings Within Rosettenville (Semi-Detached, Freestanding)
7.5. Identified sites of significance_Residential buildings within Rosettenville (Semi-detached, freestanding) Introduction Residential buildings are buildings that are generally used for residential purposes or have been zoned for residential usage. It must be noted the majority of residences are over 60 years, it was therefore imperative for detailed visual study to be done where the most significant buildings were mapped out. Their significance could be as a result of them being associated to prominent figures, association with special events, design patterns of a certain period in history, rarity or part of an important architectural school. Most of the sites identified in this category are of importance in their local contexts and are representative of the historical and cultural patterns that could be discerned from the built environment. All the identified sites were given a 3A category explained below. Grading 3A_Sites that have a highly significant association with a historic person, social grouping, historic events, public memories, historical activities, and historical landmarks (should by all means be conserved) 3B_ Buildings of marginally lesser significance (possibility of senstive alteration and addition to the interior) 3C_Buildings and or sites whose significance is in large part significance that contributes to the character of significance of the environs (possibility for alteration and addition to the exterior) Summary Table of identified sites in the residential category: Site/ Description Provisional Heritage Implications -
The Klip Riviersberg Nature Reserve, the Early Days. Compiled by René
The Klip Riviersberg Nature Reserve, The Early Days. Compiled by René de Villiers. Proclamation of The Reserve The Klip Riviersberg Nature Reserve, or the reserve for short, has always had a special place in the hearts and minds of the people living along its borders and is safe to say that most of the residents in Mondeor feel that way about it. It was certainly the case in the early days of the reserve, and I count myself among them. Since the very early days the Klipriviersberg Nature Reserve Association (KNRA) had been arranging guided walks in the reserve, and with the modest finances at its disposal strove to keep alien vegetation in check, combat fires, arrange guided walks and bring the reserve to the attention of the greater Johannesburg and the rest of the country. One of its earliest projects was to lobby, successfully, for the formal proclamation of the area as a nature reserve. For the record, it was proclaimed on 9th October 1984 in terms of section 14 of the Nature Conservation Ordinance (Ordinance 12 of 1983); Administrator’s Notice 1827. It comprises Erf 49 Alan Manor, Erf 1472 Mondeor, Erf 1353 Kibler Park and Ptn 14 of the Farm Rietvlei 101. All of these erven belong to the (then) Johannesburg City Council Parks and Recreation Department. Portion 17 of the farm Rietvlei 101 which falls within the fenced borders of the reserve, belongs to the University of the Witwatersrand. In all its endeavours the KNRA has done a sterling job and we owe a large debt of gratitude to those early pioneering committees and members in general. -
