Cavan Road is a minor road in the Lavender subzone of Kallang, Singapore. The road connects Lavender Street to Horne Road. According to Singapore Street Names1, the road was named after the 10th Earl of Cavan, Frederick Rudolph Lambert (1865-1946), who was a Field Marshall in the First World War.

Although he has no connection to Singapore whatsoever, he was one of the First World War generals and admirals which the British government in Singapore honoured with road names.

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.
