Junction of Nathan and Kimberley Roads

Date picture taken (to nearest decade for older photos): 
1967

Cropped (bottom photo) from an image on Flickr.

On Flickr atrributed to the junction of Austin and Nathan Roads, but this one shows the junction of Nathan and Kimberley Roads. The rounded building is Princess Theatre, the left one is Miramar Hotel. The movie showing was released 1960-12-23, so the date is ok.

1967 TST Nathan Rd

Reading from the street sign, this should be the junction of Middle and Nathan Roads. Swindon book shop is on the right. It seems to be very close, for me it should a a few blocks further north. The Swindon sign looks a bit different to the one from 1966: same outline, but different colour.

1960s Shamshuipo view

On this image two ferries can be spotted. The right one should be at the former Shamshuipo ferry pier, but the angle doesn't seen to fit. Any better suggestions?

Regarding the date my guess is end of 1960's.
