The Wimbledon Qualifying and Community Sports Centre, formerly the Bank of England Sports Centre in Roehampton, has emerged in reports as the Bank of England moves to relist the site’s freehold for sale. The venue—leased by the All England Lawn Tennis Club since 2021 and regularly used for community sports and the Wimbledon qualifying tournament—could change hands, fuelled by the Bank’s cost‑cutting measures. Local stakeholders express concern over the potential loss of green recreational space should the land be redeveloped into housing or commercial uses.
