    St. Paul's Church is located on Glenealy just south of the Fringe Club and the LKF district. This is an early 20th-century church with several architectural influences ranging from the neo-gothic spire and tower at the front to the Dutch style gable at the back. The building is cream coloured with light blue trim and roof. The facade of the church is a bit difficult to see as a later period building was constructed just few meters in front of it. However, you can make a side view of the church front from across Glenealy Road. St. Paul's is an active Anglican Church with regular services. Check their website for details. It also functions as a local kindergarten as well.

    St. Paul’s Church (聖保羅堂) in Hong Kong was built in 1911 to serve the spiritual needs of expatriate residents and visitors of the Anglican faith. Its founding emanated from the joint efforts of four individuals: Lam Woo (林護), Huang Mou-lin (黃茂林), Li Wei-zhen (李維楨) and the Rev. A.D. Stewart (史超域牧師). It has evolved from a small church for the expatriates living in Hong Kong since those early days into one that accommodates a wide range of churchgoers. In 1938, St. Paul’s Church Parish was put under the direct control of the Anglican Church of Hong Kong. Architecturally the church is an interesting mix of styles, predominantly Neo-Gothic with features and motifs drawn from Tudor, Dutch and Classical Revival styles. The colour scheme externally consists of crisp white stuccoed walls accentuated by the blue-painted roof and mouldings. A Dutch gable and canted bay adorn one end of the Church and a Gothic tower dominates the other end. A variety of different window shapes contribute to the interesting architectural composition.

    This church was built by the sons of the family, the latter which where killed in the boxer rebellion in China when they where missionaries from uk. The sons where in the Uk, at school during the massacre, but decided to continue their parents work, hence the church and adjacent school. There is a brass plaque commentating their achievement in the church. Despite Hong Kong now being under Chinese control there are some wonderful examples of British built buildings, many I’m pleased to say have been historically preserved and well maintained by this regime, including the building that was once the resident of the military governor and now a museum of the history of tea making, situated in Hong Kong park, once Victoria Barracks of the British army, in which I served, but alas now gone and turned into a beautiful park with fantastic aviary. No fee for entry to either the Tea museum, park or aviary.
