Dunmore Conservation Area was designated in 1990 and is situated between Raynes Park and Wimbledon. It lies east of Cottenham Park and south of Wimbledon Common and the Ridgway, a highly convenient yet secluded enclave of residential properties of distinctive character. At 1.7 hectares, Dunmore Road is one of the smallest conservation areas in the Borough. It adjoins the considerably larger Wimbledon Conservation Area immediately to the east and is close to Lambton Road Conservation Area to the west. The land on which Dunmore Road was laid out previously formed part of the estate of Thomas Devas, a leading member of nineteenth-century Wimbledon society. Dunmore Road merits protection because of the elaborate detailing of the houses, their consistency of character, and the extent to which that character has been protected against alterations. A significant element of the character of the road is the Lime and Plane trees which line both sides of the road and add to the genteel atmosphere of the street scene.
