Hi Daniel,

The white building in the middle of the photo was Peak Mansions. 

1950's seems likely. The vacant plot behind Peak Mansions had been occupied by a building named "Formosa" that was demolished on a post-war date yet to be established. The pic at www.gwulo.com/atom/32453 has been dated to October 1953 and shows Formosa still standing. Assuming the 1953 date is accurate, your photo must have been taken sometime after October 1953. 

Thank you very much for your detailed information. yes
