This memorial in Klaasens Road, Bishopscourt, shaped like a gable on a Cape Dutch house, informs us that this was part of Van Riebeeck's hedge of wild almond trees planted in 1660 to try and prevent the local Khoi people from plundering the cattle of the newly established Dutch settlement at the Cape. 
Bishopscourt is one of Cape Town's most affluent suburbs today.A close-up of the plaque.
