That photo is one of a pair taken from Chancery Lane in 1895. Both are in the Colonial Office collection of the National Archive UK. The HK Public Records Office also has copies, and while they claim to own copyright, the National Archive site says anyone can use them.

Aha! Thanks Adam, I'm off to London on Wednesday evening and have a couple of visits to the National Archive planned. I'll take a closer look then.
