Napier Road, Singapore

Napier Road, Singapore

Napier Road is a major road in the Tanglin, Singapore. Only 480 metres in length, it runs from the intersection with Tanglin Road to the south, to junction with Cluny Road. From there, it continues as Holland Road.

Napier Road was named after William Napier, who became the first local lawyer of Singapore in 1833. He married Maria Frances, the widow of famous local architect George Coleman. Much of the hill land in the Tanglin area became his plantation land.

William Napier was one of the founders of the Singapore Free Press. He also held a stake in the Raffles Library. Due to his acquaintance to Rajah James Brooke, he was made the Lieutenant Governor of Labuan.

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.
