Next to the HSBC, the Chartered Bank is under construction. That would be a few years later. Perhaps Ewart was in Hong Kong for a second spell of duty.
I have heard from Ewart. This image is one that he downloaded off the web and it is, as Moddsey commented, later than Ewart's time in Hong Kong. Perhaps, David should delete it? Andrew
Thanks for the feedback, Moddsey and Peter. I've linked the photograph to several pins on the map and also changed the date to 1957, which ties in with other images. I agree, it's all about keeping memories going. Andrew

Cricket ground
It was used during school holidays for sports facilities by ex-pat kids.
Billy Tingle ran many sport classes there.

Greetings. May I say we keep it. A bare ground can bring back fond memories of other oldtimers who once walked on it. Regards, Peter
