Tsui Shing Lau / Tsui Sing Lau pagoda [????- ]

To add confusion to this saga, the book by well-known HK architect Eric Cumine, titled 'Hong Kong Ways & Byways' published in 1981, claims that  the pagoda lost its top two storeys in a 1954 typhoon which at least gives a date for ardent newspaper researchers to have a look through. Other three storey images of the pagoda in the 1950s would appear to refute this date.

The year dates for the other two pagodas construction are of general interest.
