Places shown in this photo: 

A rough sketch of Tai Tam Fork Battery.

Black Boxes represent standard bunkers

Red represents rough paths

Blue represents the road

Green represents what appear to be gun pits

-->There is more, but it is hard to find everything since the area is VERY overgrown as Rob said. Will go back to try and make a more accurate sketch
