We have been studying the History of Bloemfontein so I took the kids to Freshford House which is about 3km from us. It was built in 1897 and some of the original furniture and gadgets are still in the house! It is a museum and we went on a guided tour with a lovely, friendly elderly lady. She explained the uses of all the funny gadgets like the clothes press, glove expander, coal stove etc! The kids were fascinated and want to go back there! We were not allowed to take photos in the house, only of the beautiful garden.
