Part of the re-development issue relating to the past.

The Famous Clock which used to be associated with Mitcham Common is to be returned after many years

As part of its £6.2m investment in Mitcham town centre, Merton Council successfully bid for £45,000 from the Heritage Lottery Fund. The money means that the clock will be brought back into full working order. It will also be repainted and the drinking fountain at its base will supply water once again. Where gas lamps once lit the clock face, electric lights will be fitted so the time will be illuminated for all to see.
