前政务司官邸

前政务司官邸(英语:Island House)位于香港新界大埔元洲仔,已列入香港法定古迹,现为世界自然基金会香港分会元洲仔自然环境保护研究中心所在地。[1]:16

历史

1899年英国租借得新界后,决定以大埔作为新界行政中心,所以当时的香港政府于元洲仔兴建新界理民官官邸,并于1906年落成[1]:16。由于当时的元洲仔只是吐露港中的一个小岛,与内陆只有一条基堤相连[1]:16,所以也设有一座码头。1949年,该建筑物改为新界政务司官邸,曾经有15位政务司入住[1]:16。1970年代起大埔发展成新市镇,进行大规模填海工程,使元洲仔与内陆相连。1982年,该建筑物被列入香港法定古迹[1]:16。自1985年升任为香港布政司锺逸杰搬出后,政府便停止将该建筑物用作官邸。1986年,该建筑物交由世界自然基金会香港分会,发展成自然环境保护研究中心[1]:16

特色

前政务司官邸是典型传统英国殖民地式建筑。整座建筑以红色石灰和红砌成,楼高两层,并建有游廊。另一个主要特色,就是屋顶设有一座灯塔,早年于晚上为吐露港行驶的船只引航。
