Raynes New Beginning
Contents:
Historically, the area of Raynes Park south of Coombe Lane and Kingston Road was part of the parish of Merton [2] and the area north of that line was part of the Parish of Wimbledon. Cottenham Park to the north of the station was the first part of the area to be laid out for development in the s. It takes its named from Charles Pepys, 1st Earl of Cottenham who lived in Wimbledon until his death in The name Raynes Park was originally used in the s and only applied to the area south of the railway line where the local landowner, Richard Garth , Lord of the Manor of the adjacent parish of Morden , planned to develop a new garden suburb [4] similar to that being developed by John Innes at Merton Park to the east.

The name refers to the Rayne family, [4] the previous landowners of the farmland on which Garth intended to build. Garth laid out the northern section of Grand Drive, about as far south as Heath Drive, [5] and Blenheim Road and persuaded the railway company to build the station. A number of detached houses were constructed, but Garth's absence as Chief Justice of Bengal slowed the development and much of the rest of the area became a golf course and cricket grounds. By the late Victorian period the residential development of Wimbledon was encroaching on the north side of the railway from the east but, apart from a few buildings including the Junction Tavern and a school, development around the station did not start until the beginning of the 20th century.
