The Former Attorney General's Chambers is a historic building at 1 Parliament Place, Singapore. Built in the Edwardian style in 1906, the two-storey civic building occupies the site of the former one-storey Court House Annexe, which was built in 1839 and later enlarged to house the Government Printing Office.

In the post-independent years, the building housed the Public Works Department from the 1960s to 1971, and from 1971 to 1991 the Attorney-General's Chambers. Today it is known as Parliament House Block C, being part of the Parliament House Complex. It was gazetted as a National Monument of Singapore on 14 February, 1992.

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.
