g History

Sheung Wan was one of the earliest settled places by the British, and belonged to the historical Victoria City. The site of the original occupation of Hong Kong island by British forces in 1842 was at Possession Street, between Queen's Road Central and Hollywood Road.

A plaque to this effect can be found in Hollywood Park at the top of Possesssion Street. The foot of Possession Street, Possession Point, was at that time on the shoreline, but is now several hundred yards inland due to reclamation.
