Hello folks

The two houses seem to be on the hill slope up from the Koon Yum Wan. The farmer's field had its water supply coming from a spring, the only one on the CC island  I know. It flows out from the foothill deep in the tiny valley on the photo's right side, This springwater becomes a snaky creek reaching all the way to the sandy beach of the Koon Yum Wan. On its course, it also fills up the ponds near the temple there.

BTW at my time, the houses are quite different, maybe re-built on newer style and size.
