Orange Grove Road, Singapore

Orange Grove Road, SingaporeOrange Grove Road, Singapore (2 August 2017)


Orange Grove Road is a road in Tanglin, Singapore. Much of the road is within Postal District 10. It connects Stevens Road in the north to the junction where Tanglin Road continues into Orchard Road. In between, it branches to Fernhill Road, Lady Hill Road, Anderson Road and towards the southern end, Nassim Road.

According to Singapore Street Names1, the road got its name from a house called Orange Grove which was one of the houses belonging to one Charles Carnie (1810-1873). Carnie possibly built Orange Grove in the 1860s. That house was later acquired by a local lawyer, Alexander Leathes Donaldson.

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.
