Believe I took this one from a lookout east of the old peak tower. I wonder about the trees and bushes on both sides.

#032 A Hospital building - Kowloon 1948 .JPG

Submitted by Suziepie on Sun, 2014-11-23 13:34
Date picture taken (to nearest decade for older photos): 
1948
Places shown in this photo: 
Kowloon Hospital [1925- ]

The 3rd of four photos uploaded  - depicting this Hospital building - presumed to be in Kowloon. This photo shows the covered walkway between two hospital units.

This is a "still" taken from an 8mm film made in 1948 - hence the blurred image.

Can anyone identify the Hospital?  I believe my brother was born there, so maybe its a maternity hospital.
