"Yaumati Wells Road" (or simply "Wells Road") was the informal name given to the road built in 1899 to connect the western and eastern parts of the Kowloon peninsula, between Yau Ma Tei and the Ma Tau Wei/Kowloon City area. Parts of the road eventually became Argyle St (see eg the 1920 Kowloon map) although it was straightened out considerably from its original winding route.
