At the end of WW II, probably end of the 1940's, accommodation space was needed for seamen of the Hong Kong Flotilla. A quick and comparably cheap way to build accommodation was the erection of Nissen huts (Wikipedia: a prefabricated steel structure for military use, made from a half-cylindrical skin of corrugated steel.)
These huts can be seen on a 1955 map and are labelled "Ratings Accommodation" (map cropped from https://gwulo.com/atom/20365)
