Message from ExploringLondon

Clapham Common is a massive green oasis in London, boasting over 85 hectares of open space for locals and visitors to enjoy. Originally common land for grazing livestock and gathering resources, it was saved from development in 1877 and is now managed by Lambeth Council. With sports facilities, ponds, woodlands, playgrounds, and even a community garden, the Common offers something for everyone. It's not just a park, but a vibrant hub for nature lovers, sports enthusiasts, and event-goers alike.
