Thanks to Rob Weir for locating this pillbox. It was built on the steps of the Victoria Recreation Club (VRC). The VRC was built on the western edge of the reclamation for the Royal Navy's dockyard, and so the steps led down into the waters of Victoria Harbour.

If you have any memories or photos of the old VRC and the pillbox on its steps that you are willing to share, please leave a comment below.

Coincidentally, there is a separate discussion underway about whether the VRC's current premises at Deepwater Bay were built on top of Pillbox 15.
