Brief History
History has it that during 1906 the then King Dinizulu was organising his impi forces to overthrow the Government of Natal. After two policemen were murdered during February 1906, the then Durban Municipal Police Force bought a number of existing buildings and which were to be used as Police Stations – one of which would become the Rossburgh Police Station.
After standing empty for several years, the IPA had during 1995 obtained approval to operate the premises as an IPA Guest House and which was officially opened on 9 December 1995.
