Endstead

Endstead Blue Plaque - Kathy Munro

This beautifully scaled home was designed by Ernest Wilmott Sloper in 1903 for himself when he joined Herbert Baker as a partner. They shared the Arts and Crafts philosophy and all the projects in the burgeoning practice, but Baker credited Sloper with the patience to teach stone-masons. The first to lecture in architecture in Johannesburg, Sloper imbued his students with his philosophy and restraint.
