CONVENT of the Holy Name of Jesus
Sightseeing in Perak picture - on Brewster Rd, opened in 1907. This front block (1927), which faces Brewster Rd, is the finest building in the complex. The middle block was completed in 1929 & the back block in 1935. The blocks are linked together by a maze of corridors & covered galleries forming a sports/games quadrangle. Note the neo-Gothic arches & the trefoil-shaped window openings with timber shutters on this front block. At one time a magnificent chapel occupied 1/3 of this block but it has since been removed. Sadly, nearby commercial construction in 1993 caused fatal cracks to buildings in this historic complex & it was later sold to a developer.
