History
After the World War II, a large number of squatter dwellings were built in Tai Wo Hau, on the hill between Tsuen Wan and Kwai Chung, and on the fields of the villages north of Castle Peak Road. The squatter area was cleared in the 1960s for the construction of the Tai Wo Hau Resettlement Estate (大窩口徙置區).[3][4] The resettlement blocks were cleared between the 1970s and 80s. The current blocks were built between 1979 and 1993.
