Summary
[edit]DescriptionWolseley Blockhouse No. 1 (N).jpg |
Afrikaans: Hierdie blokhuise is in 1901 tydens die Anglo-Boereoorlog gebou. Hulle is deur die Britte gebou om spoorwegbrûe teen Boere-aanvalle te beskerm. Die klip is plaaslik ontgin terwyl die oorblywende boumateriaal uit Brittanje ingevoer is. Hierdie blokhuise kon 20 soldate huisves met water, ammunisie en voorrade wat op die onderste vlak gestoor is. Die 'leefarea' was op die middelste vlak en is met 'n intrekbare leer betree, terwyl die boonste verdieping die "uitkykplatform" was. Slegs 1 000 van hierdie blokhuise is gebou en min het oorleef. Hulle was baie effektiewe hindernisse en min het enige aksie gesien.
Deutsch: Diese Blockhäuser wurden 1901 während des Burenkrieges gebaut. Sie wurden von den Briten gebaut, um die Eisenbahnbrücken vor Angriffen der Buren zu schützen. Der Stein stammt aus der Region, während die restlichen Baumaterialien aus Großbritannien importiert wurden. In diesen Blockhäusern konnten 20 Männer untergebracht werden, Wasser, Munition und Vorräte wurden im Untergeschoss gelagert. Der „Wohnbereich“ befand sich im mittleren Stockwerk und war über eine ausziehbare Leiter erreichbar, und das oberste Stockwerk war das „Aussichtsdeck“. Nur 1.000 dieser Blockhäuser wurden gebaut und nur wenige sind erhalten geblieben. Es handelte sich um sehr wirksame Barrieren, und nur wenige sahen, dass Maßnahmen ergriffen wurden.
English: These Blockhouses were built in 1901 during the Anglo-Boer War. They were built by the British to protect the railway bridges from Boer attacks. The stone is local while the remaining building materials were imported from Britain. These Blockhouses could house 20 men with water, ammunition and supplies stored on the lower floor. The 'living' area was on the middle floor and was accessible by a retractable ladder and the top floor was the "look-out deck". Only 1,000 of these Blockhouses were built and few have survived. They were very effective barriers and few saw any action.
