Johore Battery

Address: 27 Cosford Rd, Singapore 499549
Opening Hours: Daily 

The 15-inch gun was the largest calibre gun in use by the Commonwealth during the Second World War. There were only 7 of these guns in the entire inventory of shore-based defences spread throughout the Commonwealth and 5 of those guns were emplaced here in Singapore to defence the approaches to the naval base in Sembawang. Buona Vista Battery with 2 guns defended the western approaches while the 3-gun Johore Battery defended the Eastern Approaches.
