No 7 Castle Hill Courtyard

No 7 Castle Hill must be the most beautifully preserved historical house in Port Elizabeth and was built in 1830 by the Rev Francis McCleland who was the first Colonial Chaplain in the city. Today it is an historical museum furnished in the style of the mid-Victorian era. The original charming cobblestone in the backyard was retained and the hand pumped well was restored and is in running order.
