CITY BOUNDARY (Old Peak)
Dublin Core
Title
CITY BOUNDARY (Old Peak)
Description
The Hong Kong government erected several boundary stones in 1903 to mark the limits of the City of Victoria. Measuring 98 cm in height, tapered at the top and with the inscription ‘City Boundary 1903’, this one on Hatton Road is similar to its fellows but still in its original location. As the city’s boundaries were clearly defined by ordinance, these stones were more just physical markers, but are now historical relics.
