11-NW-20B — Series HP1C [Ma Tau Wai and Ho Man Tin, Kowloon]
At 1:1,000, this Hong Kong government plan records Ma Tau Wai and Ho Man Tin building by building. King George V School, Tin Kwong Road and Lok Man Sun Chuen anchor a dense field of individual footprints, roads, paths, slopes, spot heights and landscaped ground. This is not a simplified visitor map: HP1C was the Government’s largest-scale topographic series, surveyed and plotted for detailed planning and cadastral work, and continuously revised as the city changed. The September 1986 full revision therefore fixes an unusually exact moment in Kowloon’s development, rewarding comparison of surviving schools and street alignments with later housing and transport-led redevelopment. A trimmed fragment of adjoining sheet 11-NE-16A overlaps the upper-right corner and should be understood as part of the object, not mistaken for a second complete sheet. Intended for practical use and limited circulation, this government survey is scarce on the market. We could find no dealer or auction record of another example of this sheet and revision.
