內容簡介:

MC 仁、新界東北村民朗仔及敲擊樂手冼宏基將在此廢置建築物中,先以頌缽喚醒建築物的靈魂,再以Hip Hop音樂道出有關邊境的故事。

嚤囉樓為前邊境禁區內的一所英軍碉堡,在Google map上並不能找到其位置。據聞在上世紀三四十年代,此處大部分時間由印籍英兵駐守,因此村民稱它做嚤囉樓,附近村落亦名嚤囉樓村。築物現時隱藏於新界東北邊境樹林中,未有歷史評級,當中的故事及事蹟仍是一個謎團。但在咫尺之外的打鼓嶺差館則已被列為三級歷史古蹟。

Whispering the Frontier
5. Moro House

Presented by: Hong Kong Arts Development Council

Synopsis: Local villager Long-jai, MC Yan and percussionist Vicky Shin will perform together in this abandoned settlement. The ensemble will start with a soul-awakening with signing bowl, followed by a Hip-Hop showcase telling the border story.

Moro House (Mor Lor Lau) does not appear on Google Map or any other official records. Located just next to the borderline, the fort was formerly a colonial guard house stationed by the Indian soldiers back in 1930s. Local villagers thus called it Mor Lor Lau and its nearby settlement Mor Lor Lau Village. The fort had since been abandoned and is now concealed within the woodland with no heritage status but loads of myth. On the contrary, the similar-aged Ta Kwu Ling Police Station in its vicinity has been ranked as a Grade III Historical Building.
