Demolished / No longer exists
Date completed
(Year is approximate.)

Built : c. 1922/1923, with donation by Sir Paul Chater
Opened : 1924

According to Carl Smith's record [1], the Assembly Hall was at Cheung Chau Inland Lot 45. In the maps of Cheung Chau 1938 or present day, lot 45 seems missing. 
CCIL 44 & 46 still exist today. 

Could you help to suggest or locate its approximate location ? 
By the way, its whole roof had caved in and all seats damaged, as newspapers of 1938.  I just put a random placeholder on the Cheung Chau map above.

(update June 7)

Two more clues about the location I could find.

  As W. J. Hinton's description in 1929, [2]  

    Of the foreign buildings the most conspicuous are the Meeting Hall of the European residents situated in the midst of their rather scattered bungalows,
    and in the village, the red brick Police Station and the new School.

  From Hongkong Telegraph (1938), [3] we read :

    The Hall was built about 15 years ago ... It stands high on one of the island hills overlooking the reservation.

Does it offer some hints to confine its location to an area further southward ?

  Mr Hinton had been Professor of Economics and thrice as Dean of Faculty of Arts in HKU until 1929.
  The day before, I was given 'the' location by perplexity.ai and referred to a gwulo page [link]. From the reader's mentioned, read in the Journal of 1977 and found another article instead. The location is actually some AI hallucination  :D
