Caves

  Caves were dug into the banks of the Klip River by members of the Imperial Light Horse, some of

  them ex miners from the gold mines of Johannesburg. The caves were sited opposite the All Saints

  Church in what was considered to be the safest part of town where the Boer shells could not reach.

  Each day the citizens of the town, mainly women and children spent the day there.
