Readers often leave questions, most of which get answered quickly. But there are always a few that are more difficult to answer.
Here are some of the most stubborn - please can you help answer any of them?
- What's behind this old door?
- What do the letters 'AH' stand for?
- What was this strange concrete shape on Mount Parker built for?
- Where is Pillbox 45?
- What did St Joseph Terrace look like?
- What was it like inside Hong Kong's ARP tunnels during wartime?
Also, from time to time we're asked to help identify the location of old photographs. Here are a few that we're still not sure about:
Thanks in advance for your help.

Adoptee's in Hk
Hi Everyone, I'm semi new on here, but think I've looked at other Gwulo posts before. I have decided to continue a mammoth task of searching for photos / info linking adoptees / orphans. I don't know if there's such a category for my quest.
We span a large era from late 1950s - 80s.
I realise searching a more specific time would be easier. But just thought I'd post this question incase anyone had contributed to this.
I have some info/ photos on Chuk Yuen Children's Reception Center, Po leung kuk, Fanling Babies home..But more would be very much welcomed, there are a few of us with missing puzzle pieces...
regards and best wishes for a better Yr of the Ox 2021.

re: Adoptee's in Hk
If you look at these searches they show pages that mention orphan or orphanage:
And here are the pages for specific orphanages, as a list, and on a map.
You're welcome to add information / photos to any of these pages, or to make new pages for orphanges that are not listed yet.
Regards, David
