Album information:- The vault is huge, well looked after, with a fence that nobody can cross! According to Fransen, p 78, Pieter WOUTERSEN + 1827, as well as several members of the family are buried here. Right next to the vault is a single grave. Unfortunately we could not get a close up photo of the grave. Directions to the vault from the Main Road in Green Point - turn in to Wessel Road and continue all the way to the top of the hill. The vault is just below High Level Road! Ref: Fransen, Hans. 2004. [i]The old buildings of the Cape.[/i] Jeppestown: Jonathan Ball Publishers.
