St Helier Estate

St. Helier is a residential estate in the London boroughs of Merton and Sutton. The portion of the estate north of Green Lane and Bishopsford Road is in Merton, the rest is in Sutton.

The estate was built between 1928 and 1936 by the London County Council for the re-housing of people from decaying inner London areas. Landscaping on the large-scale town planning scheme was by landscape architect Edward Prentice Mawson.

Its development was spurred by the opening of Morden Station in 1926, and the Wimbledon to Sutton railway line in 1930, with a station at St Helier. These services provided rapid links into central London for the residents.
