Meaning of West Barnes | Babel Free
Definitions
A rural area in Northeast Surrey, England, which became a rural pocket partly in the Merton and Morden Urban District and partly in the Municipal Borough of Malden and Coombe until a railway station Motspur Park was built in it in 1925, after which the area was developed as a suburban town named after the station. Local authority reorganisation in 1965 combined it into Greater London, with the original name fossilised in a road name "West Barnes Lane". (OS grid ref TQ2267)
