The History
Another notable home is 66 Spottiswoode Park Road. Its original decorated façade — a rich Chinese fresco of simulated brick, calligraphy, and rectangular panels of traditional "bird and flower" paintings — was uncovered when the surface paintwork was removed during restoration works.
The Legacy
It is currently the only known example of an intact and original 19th-century decorative scheme in Singapore.
