'Dinner hour on the rifle range, Kowloon, 9 January 1901'
A general view of British sailors at the rifle range, Kowloon. In the background on the right is a brick build colonnaded building. A large group of sailors is informally standing to the left of the building with rifles in hand.
In the foreground are three pyramid stacks of rifles. The sailors are sitting or lying around the edge of an traditional Chinese omega-shaped grave in front of the building.
The original negative envelope was labelled: 'On the rifle range, Kowloon, Dinner hour, note grave, 9.1.01'.
