If you read enough of my blog posts, you'd know unlike most young heritage bloggers, I'm interested in the physical 'geographical heritage' of a place. To me, roads are one kind of landmark that may not disappear entirely after they are expunged, unlike buildings that are demolished, and this is why I find old roads fascinating. However I have not got down to blog about them due to other commitments and so today I shall start ... with a quiz first.
I shall not reveal too many hints as this may be too easy for some people.
- The road is behind the foliage in the first photo. If I never say this, some people may just hantum the open field in front ...
- The road is near - within walking distance - to MRT.
- The road is not in the east of Singapore.
After so many days, only one brave taker. Let me add one interesting clue: the road is still around today, just realigned.

Hi Anon, Punggol is not correct. Keep on trying!
Is it Old Jurong Road?
No, not old Jurong Rd.
Hi Icemoon,
Is it right to assume the second photo is the old road today or somewhere near the old road?
Hi Anon, the second photo is the old road today.
IS it at Ang Mo Kio?
My guess is near Dover MRT.
The first photo makes me think of Bishan Park. But cannot think of any old road there.
Oh gosh .. Anon is so smart!
Nope, not at Bishan or AMK. sorry.
The top of the apartment block in the first photo really reminds me of those old point blocks in boon lay or clementi, or even the singapore poly staff apartments... But I don't remember any big fields there. Hmmmm...
More hints please.
Is it Kranji; near the Turf Club?
The quiz is closed. The answer is here
