Rich in history: The building which now houses SMK Raja Perempuan Kelsom was built in 1906 and was the residence of Sir Hugh Low, the fourth British Resident of Perak.
A 112-year-old school building in Kuala Kangsar, Perak, lost its heritage value when its timber roof was removed by contractors tasked with repairing it.
The old building was in a poor state and required maintenance and the Perak Public Works Department (JKR) was appointed to carry out the repairs.
