According to the book “Die geskiedenis van Heidelberg” this property belonged to Mr William St Clair McLaren (1843-1889). He came to Heidelberg in 1871, opening a shop with Mr John Pagan (1844-1917), in opposition to Mr Heinrich Ueckermann (1827-1883). He also speculated on buying and selling of property. William became the richest man in Heidelberg. His house and shop was situated behind the Klipkerk on the corner of Ueckermann and Begeman Streets. During the 1st Anglo Boer War he was allowed to hold the British Officers captured by the Boers as his guests, on condition that they promised not to escape, which they honoured.

Arthur House. Andrew Young Arthur (1838-1906) came to Heidelberg with his wife Mary Sinclair nee Campbell (1835-1909) in 1872, with their two children John (1868-1941) and Elizabeth (1869-1942) and stayed in this house. They opened a butchery. One can see the house in the 1874 and 1880 picture of Heidelberg. Extensions on both sides of the house have been added. There is a plaque in the Methodist Church in honour to the two children, Andrew and Annabella, that died of Dysentery in 1897. This house could be the oldest house still standing in Heidelberg.
