Chelseafied

Winthrop House in Carr Hill Road in Wynberg's Little Chelsea district used to be the Officer's Mess for the Wynberg Military Camp in the early days of the Wynberg's history, until they moved buildings in 1880s. This is what it looks like today, and below is what it looked like in the late 1800s. (Information and the old photo is from Wynberg, a special place by Helen Robinson.)
