JOHANNESBURG HISTORICAL LEGACY
MEADOWBROOK
This Spanish-style home was designed by Norman
Hanson for Harold and Cicely Jeppe. Apart from his
business interests, Jeppe was an Olympic athlete in
1920 while studying at Oxford, an international
polo player and was instrumental in moving the
first polo club founded by his father and
associates, to Inanda.
They moved to Parktown in the mid 1940s.
