JOHANNESBURG CULTURAL LEGACY

PILRIG COACH HOUSE

Situated on the South boundary of the property the
Coach House was designed in 1903 by architects Baker, Masey
and Sloper for Archibald Balfour. Apart from stabling horses, it
housed the fodder and carriages to service the property.

To the north was a tennis court and gardens which extended
up the hill to the main house which is still standing.

The Coach House was converted for office use
in 1981/2
