This typical platteland dorp was built around the magnificent Dutch Reformed Church and is surrounded by farms and game reserves. S A L E M This historic village, located on the road to Kendon-on-Sea, was founded by early British settlers. The village boasts two Methodist Churches which were erected in 1832 and 1848 which overlook the village green where many a game of cricket has been played over hundreds of years. The village is famous for an event that took place in the Frontier Wars where a resident, Richard Gush, chose to successfully parley with an amaxhosa force that was preparing to attack the village rather than fight. S E V E N F O U N T A I N S This village, located off the N2 about 30 kms from Grahamstown possesses a splendid Methodist Church. Founded originally by Irish settlers in 1820 they named their little settlement after the number of springs in the area. S I D B U R Y A small village set out by Richard Daniel in the early 1830 s along the lines of an English country Village with Daniel s house, Sidbury Park, being set a little way from the village. Sidbury boasts two splendid churches, with a number of war graves in the church graveyards. 2
