Buxey Lodge

Submitted by lizchater on Fri, 2010-01-01 23:58

yesterday, I was browsing your photos and I noticed there was a pic of Buxey Lodge, unfortunately it wasn't tagged as such, it was in your "then and now" section.  I have looked and looked but I cannot find it.

 

I believe it is the first Buxey Lodge in Caine Road.

I'm attaching photos of the name marker of Buxey Lodge in Conduit Road.  Would be nice if I could find the first Buxey Lodge again!ERROR: Image_assist macro refers to invalid node: 4915. ERROR: Image_assist macro refers to invalid node: 4916.

I've had a request from a friend and figured gwulo might be able to help.

hook

Submitted by gweipo on Sun, 2009-12-06 19:33

I was running up Mount Davis Path the other morning and noticed a hook embedded into the slope on the left hand side. What was striking is that it is very similar to a hook they have in Gibraltar on the mountain which was apparently used to help military weaponary get up the steep slope during WW2.  Anyone have a history about the one here in HK?  Is it also from WW2?
