“The Common Story” makes an excellent Christmas present for any body interested in the history of Tooting.

Now in it’s second edition, The Common Story is a comprehensive history of Tooting Common. The book was published with lottery funding and Tooting History Group members played a major part in doing the archival research.

The Historical Association in it’s review said: “This book traces the development, and survival, of this open area and its surrounding neighbourhood. Its remarkable escape from developers in the 1870s is a crucial turning point in its history.”
