Kimberley House
The Kimberley house at 44 Pritchard street is Victorian style and one of the oldest building in the city of Johannesburg. The building was constructed in 1892 by the architect Chris J Olley and the owners of the building ran a shop for all kinds of fashion wares.〔(Kimberley House Facade ), Blueplaques.co.za, retrieved 20 September 2014〕 With limited resources at their disposal, the builders used oxen to fetch material ordered from England to Johannesburg.〔(Kimberley House ), SAHRA.org, retrieved 20 September 2014〕
==Design==
The building is a Victorian style however different styles were also incorporated into the design with plaster roundels copied from style books and verandas decorated from standard iron cast items selected from catalogues and ordered from England and Scotland. Oxen had to be used to fetch the material from Durban since there was no train rail to Johannesburg at the time.〔(What are Joburg's Oldest buildings? ), Heritage Portal, retrieved 20 September 2014〕
