Petition is successful with 5,101 signatures
To: Lambeth and Wandsworth Councils
Save Clapham Common from Commercialisation. Common Land is for the Common People!
29/01/22 - We are delighted to confirm to those of you who may not have heard the good news that the Putt in the Park application to convert the bowling greens into two putting courses has been refused by Wandsworth Council. PITP will not be submitting any future applications for the site.
Further correspondence has confirmed it was the use of plastic grass throughout the site that became the major sticking point for the Council.
We want to say an enormous ‘Thank You’ to all of you who signed this petition, wrote letters and posted objections. It has been a long and fraught 18 months of campaigning but we did it!
People power making a difference.
In gratitude.
