Former Hatton Road Service Reservoir [1908-????]

Date Place completed: 
1908-01-01

Hi there,

I believe we have missed this.  Found an online document showing the old service reservoir was a covered brick work marvel.  Unfortunately it had been retired and demonished.  In its place now is a concrete box for Salt Water for flushing.

Only year of complete is accurate.  Location market is approximate.

Panorama of HK from Lugard Road Oct 1981.jpg

Date picture taken (to nearest decade for older photos): 
1981

This picture was orginally taken as a set of four single pictures that I have merged to one panorama picture. Sorry for the stains on the original pictures.

It was taken from the living room of our house at 31, Lugard Road by my father in 1981.

It shows Kennedy Town and the much wider harbour at the eighties.

Also the fortress on Hatton Road is on the picture and to the left Green Island. Straight ahead towards Kowloon is Stonecutters Island.
