古物古蹟辦事處

Following the walkway over the outdoor swimming pools points you back towards Nathan Road, and almost directly opposite stand the red-brick premises (房屋建築及附屬場地) of the Antiquities and Monuments Office. This government body occupies the former Kowloon British School, built in 1902 with a donation from Jardines compradore (買辦) Sir Robert Ho Tung.

前九龍英童學校是本港現存最古舊的英童學校建築。何東先生（後晉封爵士）於一九零零年捐贈一萬五千元資助港府於九龍半島興建新校，學校於一九零二年四月十九日正式開幕。校舍為典型維多利亞時代建築，但亦因應本港氣候環境，建有寬闊遊廊，高樓面及金字瓦頂等。重修後，闢作古物古蹟辦事處辦公地方。
