Notes
University of Bristol - Historical Photographs of China reference number: RD-s084. The almshouse is the large building in the centre. A crenulated part of the Old Kowloon City wall can be seen just above the rooftops. There are walls too, up the sides of White Crane Hill (which is also known as Pak Hok Shan 白鶴山). See NA23-15. Parts of the almshouse building still survive - see Gwulo https://gwulo.com/node/58926.
