Local developments

All England Ground

The All England Lawn Tennis Club (AELTC) sports ground is between Grand Drive, Southway, Elm Walk and Cannon Hill Lane.  Development is proposed which would be accessed via Cannon Hill Lane, and a planning application has been lodged for consideration.

The site is known locally as the "All England" ground because it is owned by the "All England Club" - the famous home of British tennis in Church Lane Wimbledon, but it's official name is "Raynes Park Playing Fields".

There are some excellent grass courts, which in the past were used for practice by players competing in "The Championships", but sadly, not any more.
