  • Parks Open Spaces Timeline

    Parks Open Spaces Timeline

    Wandsworth Council Parks time line There are many large green open places in south west London. The commons of Barnes, Battersea, Clapham, Putney, Streatham, Tooting, Wandsworth and Wimbledon date from ‘time immemorial’. Though largely comprising the wastes or heathland of a parish, the commons were integral to mediaeval land settlements and were owned by lords of the manors. As London developed during the nineteenth century the land was increasingly developed for housing. Several legal battles took place to defend the commons as open land. Garratt Green had long been ‘defended’ by the infamous Mayors of Garratt elections. Listed below are the green places in the Borough of Wandsworth that are managed by Wandsworth Parks Service. Further historic information can be found in the individual site management plans. 1858 A Royal Commission into housing recommended creating Battersea Park, Kennington Park, and Victoria Park in Hackney with formal and informal gardens as a way offering moral improvement to an area. Health was a matter of fresh air, exercise and diet, rather than one of medical resources. 1885 Battersea Vestry created Christchurch Gardens as ‘an outdoor drawing room’. The shelter and memorial were added after 1945. 1886 Waterman’s Green was created by the Metropolitan Board of Works as part of the approach to the new Putney Bridge when it was rebuilt in stone. It was not publicly accessible. 1888 Battersea Vestry owned the parish wharf and created Vicarage Gardens as a promenade, complete with ornamental urns on plinths along the river wall. During 1990s it was included in flood defence schemes. 1903 Leader’s Gardens and Coronation Gardens were created as public parks by private donation from two wealthy local individuals.

  • The Making of Our Regional Park

    The Making of Our Regional Park

    Newsletter June 201 3 The Making of Our Regional Park The Wandle Valley Regional Park is a idea that emerged some years ago from a collaboration between the South London Partnership and the GLA. As a Wandsworth Society member with an interest in the River Wandle, I became involved and was commissioned to write a report designed to get the four riparian councils, Wandsworth, Merton, Sutton and Croydon, working together to make the most of this great and underappreciated asset in our patch of south-west London. Many years down the line I find myself still a WandSoc committee member, but also chair of the Wandle Valley Forum, the umbrella group for about 50 community groups and charities with a keen interest in the river and the string of parks and open spaces through which it f lows all the way from Croydon and Carshalton to the Thames at Wandsworth. There was a danger that such a regional park would never be more than lines on a map and otherwise look the same as it had always done to those walking their dogs or cycling along the Wandle Trail that links most of this chain of open spaces. However, there is now a thorough understanding of the great importance of this remarkable green necklace, which also includes Mitcham Common, Beddington Park and the mysterious ‘Farmlands’ that link the two. In order to raise the profile of the park in the local community it was decided to hold a launch to present some of its frankly astonishing features, and a number of guest speakers have been invited to explain the importance of these community assets and of the development of the park itself, these include representatives from the WVRP, the Heritage Lottery Fund, Merton Priory Trust, as well as Bill Dunster of BedZed and local ornithologist Peter Alfrey.

    From the Tooting Commons Management Advisory Committee

    1 From the Tooting Commons Management Advisory Committee. Planning Application Balham Boxing and Youth Club 336 Cavendish Road and Football Pitch East of 336 Cavendish Road SW12 0PP. Planning Application number 2019/4206: Executive summary 1. TCMAC approaches the application to refurbish and upgrade the triangle site from the point of view of its role as a guardian of the Tooting commons and in the light of the planning law and guidelines that apply to the London Borough of Wandsworth. 2. The relevant thrust of the law and guidelines is to balance organised sporting use of commons against other demands on them. That balance is to be met in the context of a national, metropolitan, and local move towards de-urbanisation for the sake of the health of human users, the improvement of the natural ecosystem, and in mitigation of climate change. 3.. TCMAC recognises the advantages promised by the development and appreciates the time and effort taken by the council and developer to mitigate damage to the environment, to those many users of the common who will not benefit from it, and (to a degree) to those who live alongside Tooting Bec common. 4. It notes, however, considerable public disquiet at the prospect of the site being ‘privatised’, so that what was once freely open to the public will now be enclosed and the activities within subject to charging. 5. Planning documents treat the Tooting commons not as a park or recreation ground but as a common. Tooting Bec and Tooting Graveney are a mixture of natural habitat and open spaces.
