[citation needed] The Dutch landed there after the Retreat and declared the area to be 'Terugtrekking van de nederlandse 1795' or in English, Retreat of the Netherlands 1795.

The signage with 'Terugtrekking van de nederlandse 1795' written on it can be found at a Museum in Cape Town, South Africa.

Roegchanda Pascoe was brought up here before she campaigned in Manenburg and won an international award.
