Himeville was named after Sir Alfred Hime, a road engineer elected Prime Minister of Natal in 1889, while Underberg describes that town's location beneath the mountains. The five-kilometre buffer between the two settlements relates to a certain animosity now fully consigned to history. Proof that all hatchets were well and truly buried came in 1970 when the Garden Club planted a roadside row of oak trees to symbolise the new-found unity between the two towns.
