Description
The charm of its village, the energy of its town centre and the beauty of the common combine to make Wimbledon one of London’s most characterful neighbourhoods. This engaging book explores the history, culture and natural features of Wimbledon through 100 carefully chosen landmarks. From historic buildings to humble street furniture, from ancient trees to modern statues, some are iconic whilst others, including a World War I seaplane shed and a Victorian stink pipe, are hidden in plain sight.
Discover the stories behind these landmarks and the individuals connected to them. With full colour photos, maps and four circular walks, this is an essential guide to Wimbledon, perfect for residents and visitors alike.
