London Lane (倫敦里)l is a small and inconspicuous alley located on Ap Lei Chau. It is only 30 meters long, [1] making it the third shortest road in Hong Kong.
The area was once a harbour busy with fishing boats, sampans, shipyards, and warehouses. Residents would unload goods like grain, oil, and groceries in a sandy area called Tozai Tau (渡仔頭), from where they could be transported to various shops on Main Street.
In the 1960s, a group of British sailors from HMS London visited the area and decided to build a rudimentary pier. To mark its completion, the locals erected a cast iron sign reading “London Pier.”
The pier fell into disrepair after a few years but the road leading to it was later renamed London Lane.[2]
