Description
Caption: "Cape Chestnut beside the National Road near Line Drift, Keiskamma River, King William's Town. Note how the tree is growing alone, yet it is a tree which normally likes to have others growing around it. The veld has been denuded of its dense valley bush along the stream. 1964." Additional handwritten note: "This tree was destroyed by road gangs in the early 1970's."
