In the 1840's the pepper and the nutmeg plantations lined this street. The Orchard Road Derives its name from it. The plantations were owned by the people of diverse lineage, like the Scotts, Cairnhill, and Cuppage. Today, many streets in the neighboring Orchard Road Singapore are known by these names. An inscrutable disease effaced the plantations in the 1900s. The positioning of this place in the valley also made it vulnerable to recurrent floods.
