Hello, This hedge line is not South Lane it is actually the next one away from the camera. If that line is followed to the right, the intersection with Thetford Road can be seen.

Building to the road has already started with a cul-de-sac, complete with its turning circle that will bring some of the back-gardens right to the edge of the road. Also see comments on EPW020673 and EPW038567

The Kingston Bypass was opened in October 1927. On this stretch near New Malden in March 1928 it appears that the novelty of the new road attracted more pedestrians (some actually walking on the carriageway) and cyclist than motorist.

The Ribbon Development Act of 1935 attempted to stop linear development along main roads but it came too late for many of the fairly tightly packed housing built up to and beyond bypasses.

The building in this area was rigorously controlled by The Maldens and Coombe District Council. Their Town Planning Scheme designated areas for specific types of development and as a result the transition of the ancient parish of Malden to a dormitory left us with a great deal of green space and limited housing densities. While it was built upon, we owe a debt of thanks to the forward thinking of the council which avoided it becoming like Wimbledon or Merton.
