  • Village House at No. 34 Lin Ma Hang, Sha Tau Kok, N.T
    N90 Historic Building Appraisal Village house at No. 34 Lin Ma Hang, Sha Tau Kok, N.T. The village of Lin Ma Hang (蓮麻坑) is located in the border area to the Historical south of Shenzhen (深圳). It is a Hakka (客家) village inhabited by clans Interest surnamed Cheung (張), Koon (官), Lau (劉), Sin (冼), Tsang (曾) and Ip (葉), with the Ip clan being the biggest in population. The Ips were originated from Luoxi Yue (螺溪約) of Jikang City (吉康都) in the county of Haifeng (海豐縣). Ip Si-fat (葉思發), the 11th generation ancestor at Luoxi Yue, started to settle in Lin Ma Hang over 300 years ago, and he is respected as the founding ancestor of the Ip clan in Lin Ma Hang. Lin Ma Hang is a member of the Ten Village Alliance in Sha Tau Kok (沙頭角十約). When the border was ‘closed’ in 1949, the village was split into two parts with the northern section initially named as Cheung Ming Tsuen (長命村) and later renamed as Cheung Ling Tsuen (長嶺 村), whilst the southern section retains its original name of Lin Ma Hang. At the frieze of the front elevation above the main entrance doorway of the house, there are Chinese calligraphy reading: “時在乙丑歲” (that is, the year of yi-chou), suggesting that the construction of the house was completed in 1925. According to the land records, the house partly falls on unallocated government land and partly falls on private land lots (Lots 656, 658, 659 and 1243 in D.D. 47) all owned by the Ip Clan members which altogether constitute the footprint of the subject village house.
