"Kwan Tai Lo" Milestone - Tai Tam Reservoir Road [????- ]

A British garrison was stationed at Stanley shortly after Hong Kong was ceded to Britain, although there was only a horse-path linking Stanley to the City of Victoria. This path was later upgraded to a road and a number of milestones were placed along the road, only which three have been found.

This photograph of a group of Soldiers, possibly Royal Signals, was taken I believe between 1933 and 1936.

Milestone 4, Kam Tin Road [????- ]

Hi there,

Walked by this Milestone after getting down from Tsuen Kam Pass by way of Gap Lung Ancient Trial to Lui Kung Tin, then follow Route TWSK again to Kam Tin Road.

Location is approximate despite I put the GPS logger directly on top of the stone before marking the location.

Thanks & Best Regards,

T
