Blue Plaques
Clarens Primary School
In 1914 a three-classroom sandstone school building was built on the stand at the corner of Main and Malherbe Streets to accommodate three teachers and 100 children.
Frost House
Frost House is likely to have been built sometime soon after the stand was made available for sale in 1914. No original plans are available from the council so its exact date of construction is not documented.
Ou Kliphuis
The Ou Kliphuis is a typical small one-bedroom sandstone house that could have been built around 1927. Positioned opposite the church hall, it likely served as a dorpshuisie for farmers attending nagmaal and church services.
