Visit the smallest church in South Africa

I recently visited the smallest church in Van Reenen, South Africa. The church is situated halfway between Durban and Johannesburg. Llandaff Oratory was built as a memorial to Llandaff Matthews who rescued 8 miners in a mining accident at Burnside Colliery near Glencoe in 1925. The little church only has eight seats, one for each of the men who died; symbolic and deeply resonant.
