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

Dear visitor, thank you so much for reading this page. My name is Timothy Tye and my hobby is to find out about places, write about them and share the information with you on this website. I have been writing this site since 5 January 2003. Originally (from 2003 until 2009, the site was called AsiaExplorers. I changed the name to Penang Travel Tips in 2009, even though I describe more than just Penang but everywhere I go (I often need to tell people that "Penang Travel Tips" is not just information about Penang, but information written in Penang), especially places in Malaysia and Singapore, and in all the years since 2003, I have described over 20,000 places.

While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware. Nevertheless, I hope that what I have described here will be useful to you.
