Fiddament, taken during a round the world fact finding trip.  Caption in Fiddament's notebook: "Hong Kong - Bay (from W.A.D. Brook's Air House) 26/11/45".  Air Commodore W.A.D. Brook, AOC, RAF Hong Kong.  NB sunk ship. The larger road in Fiddament’s photograph is Kotewall Road, near the junction with Conduit Road, which is the higher road to the right.  Most likely, the photograph was taken from the house built on IL1874 (IL= Inland Lot) at the bottom of Hatton Road. This house is located at 1, Po Shan Road and still stands.  See https://gwulo.com/atom/27328.
