Statement of Significance
The house, No. 7 Castle Hill, was built in 1825 for the Rev. Francis McCleland, first Colonial Chaplain in Port Elizabeth. It is an excellent example of early 19th Century town houses in the Eastern Province. It is amongst the earliest substantial buildings to be erected at Algoa Bay and is evidently the oldest dwelling.
