The house of Bastian Cooray, the residence of the maternal grand-father was the birth place of CH de Soysa in 1836. This picture (below) was taken in the latter part of the 19th century when it was used as a store-room, hence the derelict state and the lack of furniture. It's inclusion in the 'DeSoysa Charithaya' (1904) is a testament to some of the ideals, when most prefered to hide such details. The humble abode of this old family who were not that well off at the time, nevertheless was a tiled house when compared to the average dwellings of the era consisting of thatched huts that were not colour-washed. In 1675, their ancestor Sebastian Cooray had built the Dutch era church at Rawathawatha, Moratuwa.
