House/Office on Point at Hung Hom Dockyard

The house existed into the 1930s, I assume it was either destroyed during the war or by dockyard expansion in the 1930s. I can find no trace of it post WW2

Hi David, please check in my book on Page 166. I served an apprenticeship here from 1948 to 1952. The Chief Manager was Mr. A Storrar. I have a few more photos to add and information not in my book but which I will submit after researching my archives. 

All the best,

Bob Tatz,
