Could anyone tell me which road used to be Jubilee Road?  It linked Victoria with Aberdeen, but was more windy than the Pokfulam Road.  My guess is that its the road that comes out into Wanchai Gap Road (see 1909 overlay map) ... but is it the (modern) Aberdeen Reservoire Road or Mount Cameron Road?  Anyone know?  Many thanks, Patricia

Hi Patricia,

It's the road from Kennedy Town around the coast to Aberdeen. Now it is called Victoria Road.

Regards, David

Thanks, David .... I'd found reference to it by this name in 1912, but by 1916 it seems to be Victoria (Jubilee) Road in official documents.
