	--[GetawaytoAfrica.com - Getaway magazine]--
		Herbert Baker, South Africa’s most famous architect, cut his teeth at the Cape round the turn of the previous century.
		Baker’s most bold design statement is probably the Union Buildings in Pretoria, but it was in the Western Cape, as a young firebrand architect newly arrived from England, that he made his mark.
		Baker’s interpretation of Cape Dutch was something of a free translation, often borrowing from other sources or inventing his own idiosyncrasies, such as the signature twisted chimneys.

		Because the fact of the matter is that it was NOT designed by Sir Herbert Baker, but by plain Mr Herbert Baker, a promising young architect and a protege of Cecil Rhodes.
		Baker was knighted in 1926, and I rather doubt whether in later years he would have been particularly proud of this early example of his work
