About Anson Road

Anson Road was named after Colonel (later Major) Archibald Edward Harbord Anson, the Lieutenant Governor of Penang from 1867 to 1871, and Acting Governor of the Crown Colony of the Straits Settlements in 1877. Anson Road in Singapore was also named after him. When it was created around 1877, Anson Road forms the old town limit at that time.

As you drive along Anson Road today, you will pass new government offices on the left and Tenaga Nasional office on the right side, between Burmah Road and Macalister Road. The head office of Ghee Hiang Biscuits is at the junction facing Macalister Road. After the Macalister Road junction, you pass by the Anson Road Market on your left. The road curves gently right as it approaches Perak Road. On the left is Padang Brown and the Brown Memorial while on the right is the Penang Buddhist Association.

About this website

Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
