Motspur Park: Former BBC Sports Ground Clubhouse

The sports ground become disused and was sold in 2005 to a developer who intended to build a leisure and fitness centre on the site. However local opposition to the proposed scheme was strong, and the latest plans (in October 2007) are suggesting that the sports ground could be turned into a cemetery. This is because planning regulations require the land to remain as a green space and a cemetery is one of the very few options now open to the owners. This is the clubhouse photographed through the gates to the site off the Motspur Park road.
