This strong stone building is now only known as the Oriental Building( presently houses the LIC)

and is at the intersection of MG Road ( then called as, South Parade) and St. Marks Road.

There apparently was a large circle at this juncture as can be seen in the photograph.

The road you are looking at is St. Marks Road This is the Mayo hall. It sure looks much more regal than what it does today. It houses the Courts

and was apparently also one of the main Police Station jails.
