Description:

In the 1860s Hong Kong Government Offices were located on Lower Albert Road close to St John's Cathedral. They were also close to Murray Battery, thus there is an old canon lying on the ground in the foreground of the photograph.

 

Here we have a view of the offices looking east from the road. The road is now known as Lower Albert Road.
