The local list (109)

Wandsworth Council also keeps a local list of buildings and features of architectural or historic interest, begun in 1983. Local listing gives no statutory protection, but it is taken into account in planning decisions. Alongside houses, churches and shops it takes in the small things that give a street its character: boundary posts, ghost signs, old postboxes, blue enamelled street signs and the Borough of Battersea’s own nameplates.

The entries below are those around the Common, as the council gives them on its locally listed heritage map, read on 17 October 2026. The descriptions are the council’s, lightly tidied; many are cut short in the original. “BoC” and “SoL” in them refer to the council’s sources, probably the Buildings of Clapham and the Survey of London. A few duplicate entries (such as several street signs on one road) are combined. Positions on the map are approximate, to within about 50 metres.
