Interesting facts
Serangoon Road is one of the oldest roads on the island. It appears on an 1828 map as the road leading across the island, and convict labour was used to build it.
Between about 1860 and 1930 the district grew around the cattle and buffalo trade, which drew Indian herdsmen, milkmen and traders to the area.
The Sri Srinivasa Perumal Temple nearby was completed in 1855 on land bought from the East India Company in 1851. Its gopuram was added in 1966 and the temple became a national monument on 10 November 1978.
