I wonder if this is the same as the 'Tung Shan Fat Mun' Pai Lau that Thomas identified in Bob's recent photo:
It fits Martin Booth's description - he'd walked up from Tung Chung so would have come up what is called the 'Fat Mun Ancient Path' today. He'd walked up a steep section then:
... the path levelled out and I could see, some way ahead, a ceremonial archway, or pi lau. [...] The pi lau was made of stone and stood silhouetted against the sky. The Chinese characters engraved over its span had once been painted red but the mountain wind had all but wiped them clean. From the pi lau, the path followed the contours of a hill to a plateau of neatly tended vegetable fields.
