      Statement of Significance

      Fleming House is an excellent example of a dwelling of a wealthy merchant in the mid-19th Century, executed in the Regency style. Built in 1853, the house has close associations with a number of leading citizens in the Cape Colony. During the 20th Century the building has been used almost continually for educational purposes.
