I have just received a photo from the secretary of the RHKPA in UK.He asks if I can identify the buildings in the photo attached.

I guess it is Kowloon but I have never lived in Kowloon so I am unfamiliar with the area.

Any idea of the history of the building and location please?

This is one from Aetse's set on FLICKR. He sometimes pops in to Gwulo so you may get lucky - or just contact him directly.

Here is the picture on FLICKR:

The buidlings were on what today is Queensway near the so called "Death Bend", part of Victoria Barracks. Now, Pacific Place. Here is another link

Thanks for the quick identification.

Thanks for pointing out the original copy, too. I've changed it to link to Andrew's photo on Flickr.
