Entrance to Headquarters House, 11 Barker Road

A private road from Barker Road was used to access the home for those who had the required security clearance. Nearby are two other official residences, namely the one for the Chief Secretary for Administration at 15 Barker Road, and the one for Secretary for Justice at 19 Severn Road.

In 1978, it replaced the old Headquarters House (Flagstaff House) at 10 Cotton Tree Drive, which is now the Museum of Tea Ware in Hong Kong.[1]
