Littlestone Golf Club - Sandwich, or its Indian name Shawme. is the oldest of the Cape towns. Settled in 1637, it was incorporated
in 1639. An interesting note, the town motto is “Post Tot Naufragia Portus” which, in Latin means: ‘after so many
shipwrecks a haven’). The Puritans were the first to settle there. When a group of Quakers tried to move into
their settlement, they were not well received so they soon moved on.
