Vlakkerug: The farm had been in the van der Westhuizen
family since 1856, with various erven partitioned off to family members (Table
3). In 1984, Hester Sophia du Toit (nee van der Westhuizen) transferred a
portion of 4,2827 hectares to current owner Johannes Petrus Cornelius du Toit,
who at the same time purchased an adjacent property (7,6289 ha) which had also
been in the family. These were consolidated as the current extent of Farm
Vlakkerug.
Vlakkerug is farmed by the Du Toit family
who are direct descendents of the Van der Westhuizen family. A site inspection
revealed the presence of well preserved heritage structures at the Vlakkerug
Farm. There is a 19" century farm house. various barns of similar age. An
area within sight of the Valkkerug farm has been identified as a potential site
for the establishment of the new factory. which means that the general
cuiturallandscape of Vlakkerug will be affected both visually and in terms of
sense of place. (https://www.sahra.org.za/sahris/sites/default/files/heritagereports/HIA_PPC_Cement_Hart_TJ_Mar08_0.pdf)
