More About Pretoria:
Paul Kruger’s house is still standing in Pretoria Central: Paul Kruger House was built in 1884 by architect Tom Claridge and builder Charles Clark. He was the president of the ZAR (later known as Transvaal) from 1883 to 1900. Milk was used instead of water for mixing the cement from which the house was constructed, as the cement available was of poor quality. It was one of the first houses to be lit by electricity in Pretoria. The two stone lions on the verandah were presented to President Paul Kruger as a birthday gift on 10 October 1896 by Barney Barnato (the mining magnate).
