Photo by William Pryor Floyd, dated 1868.

Looks as it is an underground tank with grass on top, possibly similar to other tanks like the one on the Peak. On the right, it looks like an inlet for rainwater or the creeks visible on the 1866 map.

Hi There,

Saw this concrete water tank on a foot path linking up the northern end of Sai Yeung Choi Street North and Tai Hang Tung Recreation Ground.  This tank is elevated, with high concrete support.  I will update the marker together with a few photos later.

It is behind the swimming Pool of the Police Sports and Recreation Club.  This one looked very similar to the ones at Fei Ngor Shan and Aberdeen Reserver.  Was the area some what related to a previous military camp?

The tank is east of 8 Barker Road (Trollstua). It is accessible by stairs leading down, about 20m down from the road. It's still in use.
