Plowman'S Kop, Natal National Park, Drakensberg
Literature : Nigel Hughes, Views in Colonial Natal, Craighall, 2005, page 46 and 47, illustrated in colour.
This view of Plowman's Kop with Goodoo (Gudu) Bush on the left is seen from above the Cascades on the Marai (Mahai) Stream. Sir George Plowman, Administrator of Natal, became the first president of the Natal section of The Mountain Club of South Africa in 1919. Goodoo was one of several farms acquired in the same year by The Natal Parks Board in order to establish the Natal National Park. It was only in 1947, after the visit of the Royal Family, that the park was referred to as the Royal Natal National Park.
