Summary
[edit]DescriptionMichell's Pass Toll House 1848.jpg |
Afrikaans: Michellspas, gebou in 1848 deur Andrew Geddes Bain en vernoem na die landmeter-generaal van die Kaap, Charles Colliers Michell, het die byna onbegaanbare Mostertshoekpas vervang wat in 1765 deur Jan Mostert gebou is. Die tolhuis op beeld dateer uit dieselfde jaar, 1848, en is nie te verwar met die eerste tolhuis, waarvan ruïnes naby die bopunt van Mostertshoekpas oorbly nie. Die 1848-tolhuis was ten tye van sy aanbou verder van die pad af geleë as vandag. Michellspas is naamlik tydens WO2 en in 1988-92 heelwat verbeter sodat min van Bain se oorspronklike werk tans te siene is.
Deutsch: Michell's Pass wurde 1848 von Andrew Geddes Bain erbaut und nach dem Generalvermesser des Kaps, Charles Colliers Michell, benannt. Er ersetzte den steilen Mostertshoek Pass, der 1765 von Jan Mostert erbaut wurde. Dieses Zollhaus stammt aus demselben Jahr, 1848, ist es aber nicht identisch mit dem ersten Zollhaus, dessen Ruinen in der Nähe der Spitze des Mostertshoek-Passes erhalten sind. Das Zollhaus von 1848 lag zum Zeitpunkt seines Baus weiter von der Straße entfernt als heute. Michell's Pass wurde während des Zweiten Weltkriegs und in den Jahren 1988-92 erheblich verbessert, sodass von Bains Originalwerk derzeit nur noch wenig zu sehen ist.
English: Built in 1848 by Andrew Geddes Bain and named for the surveyor-general of the Cape, Charles Colliers Michell, Michell's Pass replaced the precipitous Mostertshoek Pass build by Jan Mostert in 1765. This toll house dates from the same year, 1848, and is not identical with the first toll house, of which ruins remain near the top of Mostertshoek Pass. At the time of its construction, the 1848 toll house was situated further from the road than it is today. Michell's Pass was much improved during WW2 and in 1988-92 so that little of Bain's original work is currently visible.
