Liz Chater showed me a photo of the hillside of Hong Kong, where Marble Hall had a large sign on its roof, but I don't remember the wording.

Liz, if you see this, was it another copy of this photo? If not, please can you tell if it is Marble Hall with the big 'Victory and Peace' sign in this photo?

Regards, David

Confirmed Victory and Peace was adorned on Chater's residence at Marble Hall.

Thanks to you both. I've updated the title and add the Place.
