Loerie (also known as Loerieheuwel) is a town in Sarah Baartman District Municipality in the Eastern Cape province of South Africa. Settlement some 25 km north-east of Jeffreys Bay and 11 km north-north-west of the mouth of the Gamtoos River. Said to take its name from the loeries or louries, a turaco species (Tauraco corythaix) occurring here.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://archive.org/details/DictionaryOfSouthernAfricanPlaceNames )〕 Loerie had a railway station on the Avontuur Railway which closed in 2011. In 1930, the Eastern Province Cement Company opened a limestone quarry and built a 14 km cableway to transport the stone to the Loerie railway station where it was transhipped to the Avontuur Railway to be processed in a cement factory near Port Elizabeth.〔http://www.baviaans.net/index.php?page=information®ion_id=3&town_id=4 Loerie history〕 ==References==
