About

Tooting Bec Common is a large open space in south London, covering over 200 acres. The area is characterised by its extensive grasslands, wooded areas, and the prominent Tooting Bec Lido at its southern edge. Sports facilities are a central feature, with numerous football pitches, cricket grounds, and tennis courts in regular use.

The common is defined by its network of paths used by commuters, joggers, and dog walkers. A specific landmark is the historic windmill stump located near the lido, a remnant of the area's rural past. The open landscape creates a distinct sense of separation from the surrounding residential streets.
