"I took a private walking tour of archaeologists around the Battle of Muizenberg site last week. We have a lot of early history around us, dating back to the VOC and the 1st British Occupation. Fascinating stuff if that is of interest to you. Sadly the Battle of Muizenberg site is being occupied by street-people who are erecting shelters, and using the rocks of the British fort (1810) to do so. So the physical evidence of a critical moment in our history is being degraded and lost." Chris Taylor
