Not sure if this photo already exists here, so allow me to continue ...

Connaught Road and Soldiers Marching c.1930

Caption from photo source: “這是1927年省港大罷工後派來香港的軍人，地點是干諾道西夾威利麻街, 遠處是東邊街口, 樓柱可見「香港仔街坊汽車停車 .. 」, 前往香港仔的巴士由此處開出.”

[Translation: 1927 (photo) following Hong Kong’s general strike* (showing) “English” soldiers sent here (in response). The location is on Connaught Road West at Wilmer Street. The distant street corner (background) is Eastern. Shophouse column says bus to/from Aberdeen is at this spot.**”]
