<p>Wimbledon Common, together with Putney Heath and Putney Lower Common, is protected by the Wimbledon and Putney Commons Act of 1871 from being <a href="Enclosure" title="Enclosure">enclosed</a> or built upon. The common is for the benefit of the general public for informal recreation, and for the preservation of natural flora and fauna.

The Commons are managed by the Clerk and Ranger, supported by a Deputy, a Wildlife & Conservation Officer and a personal assistant. There are seven Mounted Keepers (who deal with public safety and security), two groundsmen (for the playing fields), six maintenance workers and one property maintenance worker – some 23 employees in total.<sup id="cite_ref-wpcc_1-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-wpcc-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> There are at least four horses which are used by the Keepers on mounted patrol.

</p><p>Two broad, shallow pools, Kingsmere and Rushmere, lie near roads on the higher parts of Wimbledon Common and seem to be the result of gravel extraction. The more remote Queensmere is somewhat deeper, being impounded in a small valley. These were often referred to as "Pen Ponds".

On a Sunday afternoon in May 1798 <a href="William_Pitt_the_Younger" title="William Pitt the Younger">William Pitt</a>, the then Prime Minister, who lived in Bowling-Green House on the heath, fought a bloodless battle with William Tierney, MP. The house derived its name from the bowling-green formerly attached to it, and for more than sixty years (1690–1750) was the most famous green in the neighbourhood of London. "In the early days of George III's reign it was celebrated for its public breakfasts and evening assemblies during the summer season. It was occupied for some time by Archbishop Cornwallis previous to Pitt taking up his residence there. During Pitt's ownership the house had large rooms for public breakfasts and assemblies, was a fashionable place of entertainment".

After Abershaw's execution at Kennington, his body was hung in a chain gibbet on the heath, as a warning to others. The location on the heath is known as Jerry's Hill.

</p><p>The village green at the corner of Wildcroft and Telegraph roads is still used by Roehampton Cricket Club, established in 1842.

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Legal_disputes">Legal disputes</h2></div>

<p>In early 2012 the Wimbledon and Putney Commons Conservators agreed to sell the access rights across Putney Common to <a href="Wandsworth_Council" class="mw-redirect" title="Wandsworth Council">Wandsworth Council</a>, having been threatened with a <a href="Compulsory_Purchase_Order" class="mw-redirect" title="Compulsory Purchase Order">Compulsory Purchase Order</a> if they refused. Without public consultation the Conservators entered into legal agreements, in return for a payment of £350,000. Some local residents who objected to the sale of the access and loss of common to facilitate what they saw as an unattractive and over-intensive development challenged the sale in the High Court, which ruled that the Conservators had not acted beyond their powers.

</p><p>Some local residents also objected to Wandsworth's planning permissions for the site (where Wandsworth were both the applicant and planning authority), and two permissions were quashed by the High Court in early 2013 over technicalities. The technicalities were corrected and the planning permission subsequently re-obtained. The residents made a public appeal to fund their legal challenge, raising £25,000 from a few dozen donors. The Wimbledon and Putney Commons Conservators joined forces legally with Wandsworth, appointing Wandsworth to build the roads.

</p><p>The land sold by the Conservators to the council will be tarmacked for some 110 metres (120 yards), and lined with bollards, in addition to street lighting, tarmacked footpaths and electronic barriers, which objectors say will suburbanise and alter the natural state of the Common. The Conservators refused the sustainable transport charity Sustrans permission to upgrade an adjacent path to a cycle path on the grounds that it would "alter the natural state of the commons". The <a href="Open_Spaces_Society" title="Open Spaces Society">Open Spaces Society</a> gave financial support to the residents in taking the case to the Court of Appeal, saying in December 2013: "This is a unique green lung, which the society helped to save back in the 1870s. We are not prepared to stand by and see it destroyed now."<sup id="cite_ref-47" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-47"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>47<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

</p><p>In August 2016 the Charity Commission announced a Statutory Inquiry into the potential loss due to granting of an easement for access rights to Putney Lower Common.<sup id="cite_ref-48" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-48"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>48<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

</p><p>In July 2020, nearly four years after the Inquiry commenced, the Charity Commission published the results of their Statutory Inquiry, concluding that the easement may have been transferred at an undervalue. <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/charity-inquiry-wimbledon-and-putney-commons-conservators/charity-inquiry-wimbledon-and-putney-commons-conservators">Charity Commission Statutory Inquiry Conclusion</a>

</p><p>On 4 August 2020, <i>The Times</i> newspaper published an article suggesting that the Charity Commission's Statutory Inquiry was a whitewash, as criticism of the deal and trustees was removed when the report was challenged by lawyers acting for Sir Ian Andrews. In the article the Labour MP Dame Margaret Hodge questioned whether the commission was 'fit for purpose', due to the changes. Putney's MP, <a href="Fleur_Anderson" title="Fleur Anderson">Fleur Anderson</a> described the report as a 'whitewash'.<sup id="cite_ref-49" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-49"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>49<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

</p>

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Keepers">Keepers</h2></div>

<p>The Wimbledon and Putney Commons Act 1871 contains a provision to allow the Conservators to have Officers attested as constables<sup id="cite_ref-50" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-50"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>50<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> for the purposes of enforcing the provisions of the Act and all bylaws made there under.

</p><p>There was resistance at the time to a similar provision in the draft Bill that preceded the Act, whereby an article in <i>The Spectator</i> in January 1865 objected to the creation of 'Spencerian Police'.<sup id="cite_ref-51" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-51"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>51<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The article refers to draft Bill as it was published in draft in 1864, whereby the article suggests that the Bill contained a provision for the appointment of Special Constables with full police powers. It would seem that this provision was removed in favour of the provision that allowed the attestation of constables just for the purposes of enforcing the Act itself and the byelaws made there under.

</p><p>In addition to the ability to swear in constables, the Act creates a power of arrest for any officer of the Conservators or a constable when the details of a person suspected of committing a byelaws offences cannot be obtained (e.g. details refused or suspected of being false).<sup id="cite_ref-52" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-52"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>52<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Whilst it is unlikely that this power would be used by anyone other than a Keeper in modern times, a theoretical power of arrest exists for any staff and for any member or the public that they call upon for assistance.

</p><p>The historic role of the Keeper was captured in a 1959 <a href="British_Path%C3%A9" class="mw-redirect" title="British Pathé">British Pathé</a> film, which showed them dressed in bowler hats and tweeds being inspected by the Warden (a former Lieutenant Colonel) before going about their daily routine of tackling summer fires and challenging golfers who were not in appropriate attire.<sup id="cite_ref-53" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-53"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>53<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>
