Tooting Common is set to get a large cash boost
Plans to restore some of Tooting Common’s most prominent features have received a £273,200 boost.
The Heritage Lottery Fund awarded the borough’s parks team the money to develop a blueprint for initiatives celebrating the common.
Environment spokesman, Councillor Jonathan Cook, said: "This exciting project aims to improve how the common is managed as a whole and provide a better local amenity for residents to enjoy.
"It will also help make sure that the common’s important historical features and its important biodiversity are preserved for future generations."
