Notes

University of Bristol - Historical Photographs of China reference number: JC-s286. The plaque reads: 'THIS TREE WAS PLANTED BY W. DREW C.M.OF BOILERMAKERS WHO WORTHILY UPHELD THE NOBLE TRADITION OF HIS CRAFT WITH TACT AND SOBRIETY FOR 12 YEARS IN HONG KONG / 13 . 6 . 1921'. Boilermakers, H.M Naval Yard, Hong Kong. The story behind this is not known - it may be humourous?
