APART FROM OFFERING THE TOURIST AN EXCITING HOLIDAY
AND LOTS OF SUNBATHING, THIS BUSTLING TOWN IS A BREATHING
MONUMENT OF HISTORY. HIDDEN AWAY IN PIESANG VALLEY, STANDS
A CHAPEL BUILT BY A WILLIAM HENRY NEWDIGATE. HE WAS THE SON
OF AN OLD ANDDISTINGUISHED FAMILY. AFTER SETTLING ON HIS FARM IN 1847, HE STARTED BUILDING A SCHOOL-CUM-CHAPEL FOR HIS FAMILY. HIS FATHER THEN RAISED MONEY FOR THIS BUILDING. BUT THE MONEY WAS NOT USED FOR THIS PURPOSE. THE WOOD AND LABOUR ALL CAME FROM THE FARM. IN 1885, A BISHOP ROBERT GRAY, HIRED THE BUILDING FOR ECCLESIASTICAL PURPOSES. THIS LITTLE CHAPEL IS THE OLDEST ECCLESIASTICAL BUILDING IN THE GEORGE DISTRICT. AND NOW WE MOVE TO THE CHARMING FORMOSA COTTAGE. THIS BUILDING WAS BUILT BY THE 1885 MISSION SCHOOLMASTER, WILLIAM JONES. HE WAS IN CHARGE OF THE ST. PETERS CHAPEL . HE BUILT THE BUILDING ON CHURCH PROPERTY. IN 1880 HE OPENED THE VAN PLETTENBERG ARMS. HE GAINED A REPUTATION FOR BEING A GOOD HOST BEFORE THE CHURCH STEPPED IN AND CALLED A HALT TO THE PARTY FIVE YEARS LATER. THE CHURCH THEN AGREED TO SELL THE PROPERTY TO JONES, BUT AS HE BUILT IT ON CHURCH PROPERTY, IT WAS NOT TILL 1912 THAT THE TRANSFER WAS PASSED.
