背景 Background

東涌炮台位於大嶼山東涌,清代稱「東涌所城」,是大鵬協右營的水師總部。炮台入口的石匾刻有年份,顯示其建於一八三二年(清道光年間)。一八九八年新界租予英國後,清廷軍隊撤出,炮台先後被用作警署、華英書院、鄉事委員會辦事處及東涌公立小學,該小學至二〇〇三年才停辦。炮台牆垣以巨石砌成,設有城門和多門古炮,是香港保存較完整的清代海防遺蹟。一九七九年列為法定古蹟。

Tung Chung Fort on Lantau Island, known in the Qing dynasty as Tung Chung Suocheng (Tung Chung Battalion City), served as the naval headquarters of the Right Battalion of Dapeng. A carved granite slab above its entrance gives the date of the fort as 1832. When the New Territories was leased to Britain in 1898, the Qing authorities evacuated it, and the site was later used as a police station, then by Wa Ying College, the Rural Committee Office and Tung Chung Public Primary School, which closed in 2003. Built of large stone blocks with gates and old cannons, it is a well-preserved example of Qing coastal defence. It was declared a monument in 1979.
