This heritage preservation society has its head office in a 1920s colonial bungalow. The building, once part of a neighbourhood of British officers' quarters, is practically a sole survivor in this high rise area. The trust holds exhibitions and has a small shop stocking wooden antique furniture, local handcrafted items and books.
