A short history of KT3
In the fourteenth century land here belonged to the Mot family, whose surname became that of a farm west of Beverley Brook. The district was long called West Barnes after barns on the westernmost part of Merton Abbey's land. After the abbey's dissolution its land went to the Gresham family and was sold to John Carpenter in 1570 or 1612. The farm appears as Motes Firs in 1627 and Motts Spur Farm by 1823. New Malden grew after its station opened in 1846. The railway reached the Motspur Park area in 1859 and "Park" was added to the name in the late nineteenth century. Motspur Park station opened in 1925 and the Kingston Bypass followed in 1926. Between the wars Modern Homes and Estates Ltd built many of the streets. New Malden was bombed on 16 August 1940, damaging about 1,300 homes. Six Grade II listed buildings stand near New Malden's centre.
