Tsui Sing Lau Pagoda , Ping Shan = 屏山, 聚星樓 c.1985

Date picture taken (to nearest decade for older photos): 
1985

Compared with my photograph of 1966, the untidy surroundings near the pagoda in 1985 had been cleaned up a little, affording somewhat easier access. However, the proximity of newly erected overhead electricity supply cables indicates that heritage conservation  still received little consideration at the time.

Tsui Sing Lau Pagoda , Ping Shan  =  屏山, 聚星樓 1966

Photographed by Peter Crush ( "Chinarail" )

At this time the pagoda was surrounded by encroaching "Muk Uk" ( 木屋 ) and accumulated garbage with little attempt by anyone at conservation.
