Stanley Fort is a military installation on the south side of Hong Kong Island.
[1] The fort, which occupied a site of 128 hectares, was founded in 1841 on the Stanley Peninsula at the southern side of Hong Kong Island.
During the Battle of Hong Kong on December 25, 1941, the fort was where British and Canadian troops mounted a final counterattack against Japanese positions at St Stephen's College.
By the early 1950s the fort was base of the 27th Heavy Anti-aircraft Regiment and a small workshop operated by the Royal Electrical and Mechanical Engineers.
The fort had three-storied barracks, a two-storey NAAFI, medical facilities and a Company HQ building.
