97A High Street
The site was originally home to a church, together with a school and offices, built in 1861 by the Basel Mission for a congregation from the Hakka community. The Tsung Tsin Mission was established in 1924 to take over the church, which was granted independence in 1927 subject to the church being rebuilt and renamed Kau Yan Church. Completed in 1932, it was designed by Palmer & Turner Architects in concrete and stone in the Gothic Revival style with pointed arches and applied buttresses. From the tower above the altar at the northern end, the building naturally follows the slope of the terrain. The adjoining school and residential site were redeveloped in 1958 and then again in 1995.
