History
Cato Manor became recognised when the Black Africans came to settle in during the 1920s, and rented land from Indian landlords who were there since the early 20th century. To earn a living, people started brewing beer and selling it in the streets of Durban to the thirsty workers. The authorities were glad to have people in town for labour but were scared to be overwhelmed by their population.

That the history of creation proceeds according to

Do get done in this way, but never the things
We set out to accomplish and wanted so desperately
To see come into being.”
