About

Wimbledon Common is an area of common land in the London Borough of Merton, managed by the Wimbledon and Putney Commons Conservators. The landscape includes heath, mixed woodland, ponds and open grassland, crossed by a network of tracks used by walkers, horse riders and cyclists. The Common is used for informal recreation and organised sport, with a golf course and areas set aside for conservation. Its status as common land means a range of public rights and long-standing local stewardship shape how the space is used and maintained.

The windmill on Windmill Hill sits on the edge of the Common and houses a small local museum, a reminder of the site’s past uses amid more recent conservation work. Ponds and scattered streams support birdlife and seasonal displays of wildflowers, while broad rides and clearings offer views across the trees. Management focuses on habitat mosaic and public access, so visitors move between open heath, shady woodland and wetter areas without leaving the Common.
