Green Lane & St James
Kingston upon Thames, London
Green Lane and St James sits in the north-east of Kingston around Motspur Park, Worcester Park and southern New Malden, a quiet suburban ward with an almost entirely twentieth-century housing stock. The ward has no listed buildings and no conservation-area cover, and the largest park is Green Lane Recreation Ground at around five hectares. Safety sits in the top fifth of London wards, air quality is good, and the food and retail offer around Burlington Road and Tolworth Broadway runs to around 34 eating places. The costs are what the scores show: only two Ofsted outstanding rated schools within reach, almost no public-transport access on the index with the slow South Western Railway into Waterloo the main link, a thin cultural footprint running to the local library and a handful of pubs, and a market score that sits well below the Wimbledon-adjacent Kingston wards. It is quiet, clean and residential — priced for exactly that.
