Commeration Methodist Chapel is seen at the end of the road in Grahamstown in the Eastern Cape of South Africa on Monday November 8, 2004. The tall blue building on the right hand side is the Observatory Museum. In 1844 a gathering of Settlers was called to consider how best to observe the Silver Jubilee of the settlement. Rev. William Shaw proposed that a chapel be built, to be called Commemoration Chapel and that the foundation stone be laid on the 10th April 1845 "this being the anniversary of the arrival of the 1st Party of British Settlers". The church was completed in November 1850. (Photo by Christine Nesbitt)
