Achibald Corbett developed the Hither Green Estate between 1885 and 1911. He purchased 278 acres of land from the Earl of St. Germans taking advantage of the new railway station, vital for the transportation of tenants to Central London. Enhancing this facility, Corbett loaned the South Eastern Railway £3,400 to build a more convenient entrance. The railway company also agreed to sell cheap season tickets to Corbett tenants, a major selling point for prospective buyers.

Many of the estate’s road names are Scottish reflecting Corbett’s ancestry. Corbett included shopping parades, churches, schools and recreation grounds, and donated a library in 1907.
