Very interesting high resolution photo - I'm guessing the house in the middle is Stanley Lodge and one of the others is Palm Villa, anyone know which the third one is?

Palm Villa was north of Ho Lodge, so I'm assuming it is the one on the far right?

I wonder what that little collection of stuff was half way down the slope? I suspect Annelise can tell us what the one on the far left was.

The house of the far left was "South Cliff".  The photo has now been made private on Flickr, and so I don't know how to contact the fellow who posted that he had lived there.
