Singapore Naval Base Housing. The Jacksons68 viewsSingapore Naval Base Housing - The Jacksons. 156 Gibraltar Crescent. Built at the start of the Naval Base construction in 1929 by Sir John Jackson for his European Staff. Due to the ever present shortage of suitable accommodation close to the Naval Base (some families rented in Johor) the 'Jackson' blocks became subdivided into three units and used as temporary accommodation for middle grade Civilian staff and their families before being allocated more permanent accommodation in a larger bungalow.

Our bungalow at 12th Mile68 viewsOn arriving in Singapore in 1958 before being allocated an official residence on the Naval Base we found a newly built bungalow to rent (No 12 of about 16 on the site) at 12th Mile on the Sembawang Road. The bungalow had running water but no electricity supply. Lighting, cooking and the fridge all ran on kerosene which was delivered in large metal tins every couple of weeks. Today the bungalow has been redeveloped and stands on Jalan Mata Ayer.
