Victoria-Harbour - map of 1866

Date picture taken (to nearest decade for older photos): 
1866

Here goes my second attempt at adding maps for David's new map project. The source this time is the 1867 edition of the Chronicle & Directory of China. Japan & Corea etc.,etc. Note that there are some minor imperfections in the street alignments in the area adjacent to Taiping Shan, Union Chapel & Hollywood Road ( marked as "37" & "D" respectively in the Index) . These errors (arising from page joints or paper folds) were present in the original microfilm reader printouts from which I have stitched this map together.
