Botha's Hill
The naming of Botha's Hill has, apparently, two contenders. Philip Rudolph Botha (according to T.V. Bulpin in his book: "To the shores of Natal") took land in the area in the mid-1800's. His grandson later became the famous Louis Botha, "one of the giants of South African history". But local historians, among them Robin Lamplough, now favour Cornelis Botha who had established Botha's Halfway House on the Buffelsfontein Farm in the early 1850's.
