Content and context

Walker Wheatley Davidson, born 1866 was of the F.M.S. Public Works Department. He either took this photograph or had it taken.

200 x 145 mm. A view looking along a flooded street, with Malays standing in the water at the crossroads in the foreground. A note on the reverse queries whether this is a view of Kuala Trengganu [i.e. Terengganu] or Kelantan; the former seems more likely.

Further information
