"Designed by A.L. Meiring for the Paarl Chamber of Executors in the 1930’s. It is one of the earliest “Modern” buildings in Paarl and combines different elements like granite, wood, glass and chrome. It later became Syfrets Bank and until recently the headquarters of the Canning Fruit board." (A Walking Tour of the Historical Heart of Paarl)

Granite supplied by JA Clift.
