Lady Selborne Traditional Cache

Short history of Lady Selborne:

Lady Selborne was honoured to be named after Lady Beatrix Maud Cecil whose husband had succeeded Lord Milner as high commissioner for South Africa and governor of the Transvaal and Orange River colonies. In 1905 Lady Selborne was established as a freehold township for “coloured” people. It was situated against the south slopes of the Magaliesberg and it was purchased as portion 16 of the farm Zandfontein. The residents of Lady Selborne were scattered in the early 60’s after they’ve lost the fight to retain their long held status as landowners.
