Most likely, the old house built on the site of the Kleinfontein
farm, now in Bill Davey Drive, Lakeside. It was reported to have been built by Sir George Farrar
as his hunting lodge before the turn of the 20th Century and before the town of Benoni
was laid out by him in 1904. Any building in Benoni
therefore would be younger than the farm homesteads. Farm houses no doubt existed on the Modderfontein
and Vlakfontein
farms and until about 20 years ago the Vlakfontein
homestead foundations in Rynfield
were apparently still visible. Kleinfontein
was bought by Johan Hendrik Botha
from the Transvaal Republic Government in 1866.
Vlakfontein
was bought by the Nel
family in 1866.
Modderfontein
was bought by H.P.
van der
Walt around 1873.
