ABOUT THE FARM: https://www.devb.gov.hk/en/home/my_blog/index_id_435.html
Revitalisation of the Old Dairy Farm Senior Staff Quarters (SSQ) into the Pokfulam Farm The SSQ, located at No. 141 Pok Fu Lam Road, was constructed in 1887 as residence for the Farm Manager of the Old Dairy Farm. The SSQ comprises the Main Building, the Servants’ Quarters and the Garage Block. The three buildings have been left vacant since 1987 and were accorded a Grade 1 status by the Antiquities Advisory Board in December 2009. In June 2015, Caritas-Hong Kong was the successful applicant selected to revitalise the SSQ. Putting much effort and thought into choosing the name, Caritas-Hong Kong specially name the project “The Pokfulam Farm” by using the ancient written form of the Chinese name of Pok Fu Lam so as to highlight its long history.
