The 1927 map of the Singapore Strait by the British Admiralty stands as a meticulously crafted and instructive cartographic representation. This map, authored by the United Kingdom's preeminent maritime authority, the British Admiralty, offers a comprehensive depiction of the Singapore Strait during an era when the British Empire held sway, and Singapore assumed pivotal strategic significance.

The map is thoughtfully divided into two sections: the upper segment unveils the eastern sector of the strait, while the lower portion unveils its western counterpart. It showcases the intricate details of streets, edifices, and prominent landmarks, while also rendering the precise locations of geographical features such as mountains, rivers, and other natural elements.

Among the noteworthy features illuminated on this map are:

- Singapore Island: The heart of the Singapore Strait, hosting the city-state of Singapore, Singapore Island is prominently featured.

- Johore Strait: Separating Singapore Island from the Malay Peninsula, the Johore Strait is clearly delineated.

- Riau Islands: This archipelago, situated within the Singapore Strait, is an integral part of Indonesia.

- Batu Berhanti Islands: As part of Singapore, the Batu Berhanti Islands are another archipelago distinctly portrayed on the map. 

The 1927 British Admiralty, China Sea Singapore Strait., map is a valuable resource for historians and anyone interested in the history and development of the Singapore Strait. It provides a snapshot of the strait at a time of great importance to the British Empire.
