This is the view from Gates Green Road which runs along the western edge of West Wickham Common. The Common is mostly wooded and forms a continuous tract of open land with Hayes Common and the London Green Belt. West Wickham Common is noted for its wonderful ancient oak pollards. As can be seen from the distinctive notice it is owned and managed by the City of London.
