Philipstown

Philipstown is situated close to De Aar and Colesberg in a settlement primarily a sheep farming community. The town was originally found in 1863 as a church centre for the area and not much has changed since then.

City-dwellers, who yearn for wide-open spaces, often find the gorgeous old architecture very attractive and one can hardly believe that at one stage house in this town were being sold for less than a regulation door would cost today.
