Hi there,

1.  I believe the house at the lower left corner of the photo was (and still is) the Indian club.  The big lawn should also be the property of the club.  I think they have another club house at Kingspark, right at the side street leading up to the Queen Elizabeth Hospital;

2.  The military quarters atop Leighton Hill are visible;

3.  The Saint Paul's Convent (Catholic) School/Convent/Chapel/Hospital complex are also visible;

Best Regards,

T

Thank you, tngan, for identifying more places.  However, the two white buildings atop Leighton Hill (address was: 16 Link Road) were government quarters and not military quarters.  The military quarters were Harcourt Place on Wong Nai Chung Road (at the foot of Leighton Hill).
