It is amazing to see the 1950's Pokfulam Farm. I may recognise some areas of your posted photos.
We, Pokfulam Village Cultural Landscape Conservation Group, are advocating to conserve the Dairy Farm heritage, an unique type - Agricultural -industrial heritage.
We would like to know the post of Mr. Arthur Ernest Peill in Dairy Farm. As he might be a visitor or occupant of the senior manager house which named as Braemar. It is last manager house exists in main farm.
In addition, we would like to seek your consent to use some of these photos and exhibited in the forthcoming conserving Braemar?
As my father's only heir, you have my permission to use any of my photos of The Farm - there is even one of the Manager's house! My mother Margaret and I lived there with my Dad - it was a lovely home and I spent the happiest days of my childhood years there (1949-1951).
Is the house really still there and if so can you send me a picture?
I have more photos to scan and send but undergoing technical problems currently being seen to.
Please keep in touch with info on your project, thanks,
