Old Malden
Kingston upon Thames, London
Old Malden sits in the east of Kingston upon Thames between Worcester Park and New Malden, a mostly inter-war suburban ward with a surviving medieval church core on the Hogsmill River. The character is quiet residential. The five listed buildings include the Grade II Manor House next to St John the Baptist church and the Grade II Malden Green Farmhouse, safety scores well above the London median, air quality is good, and green space runs to 15 hectares with Long Meadow along the Hogsmill. Housing is more affordable than the riverside Kingston wards. Public-transport access is moderate with Malden Manor and Worcester Park on South Western Railway. The negatives: there are only four outstanding-rated schools within reach, culture is thin with only 22 non-food venues, and heritage is modest despite the medieval fragment.
