High Court Clears Legal Obstacle in Wimbledon Expansion Fight

Posted : 19 March 2026

 The High Court has ruled that the land for the Wimbledon tennis site expansion is not bound by a statutory trust requiring it to remain public open space, removing a key legal barrier to development.

The All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club plans to build dozens of new courts and an 8,000‑seat stadium on the former Wimbledon Park Golf Club site.

Campaign group Save Wimbledon Park says it intends to appeal the decision, continuing its challenge against the redevelopment plans.
