Notes / History | Much of the Raynes Park and West Barnes area was redeveloped during the interwar period. Rural farmsteads and isolated cottages gave way to rows of detached and semi-detached homes built by developers such as George Blay who was responsible for the Cannon Hill Estate. Many of these properties were larger than those in other parts of Merton with three bedrooms, a bathroom, kitchen, hall and two reception rooms. |
