London is the capital of England and of the United Kingdom. It was established as a civilian town by the Romans about seven years after the invasion of AD43; however, there is evidence of prehistoric settlement in London dating from at least a thousand years before that. The name Londinium is thought to be pre-Celtic in origin and although there has been no academic consensus, it probably means "the flowing river".

During London's 2,000 years of recorded history, it has experienced plague, devastating fire, civil war and two world wars, yet it has grown to become one of the most important business, financial and cultural capitals in the world.

The city is a major tourist destination, with four world heritage sites and numerous iconic landmarks such as the Houses of Parliament, Tower Bridge, the Tower of London, Westminster Abbey and the London Eye amongst its many attractions, along with famous institutions such as the British Museum and the National Gallery.

London is made up of 32 boroughs, plus the City of London borough, and about 22 per cent of London's population were born outside of the UK, which is what makes it such an ethnically-mixed and culturally-diverse city.

Travel around London on public transport is easy and frequent. The London Underground (more commonly known as "The Tube") serves 275 stations and there are hundreds of bus routes serving the city and suburban areas. London has five main train stations:-Waterloo, Victoria, St. Pancras, Paddington and Euston, with trains running to all of Britain's major cities. St Pancras station is also the terminus for the Eurostar train to Paris.

With a large port and five international airports, London is a major international transport hub. Its main airport at Heathrow carries more international passengers than any other airport in the world.

Wimbledon is a suburb of London, part of the London Borough of Merton and located seven miles (11.3 km) south west of Charing Cross.

For most of the past one hundred years, Wimbledon has been synonymous with the Wimbledon Tennis Championships, a major international sporting event that is held every June/July over a two week period.

Wimbledon Park is a both a park in Wimbledon and the suburb around it, to which it lends its name. It is the second largest park in the London Borough of Merton and Wimbledon Park tube station can be found on it's eastern edge.

To the immediate west of the park is the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club. Wimbledon Park should not be confused with the much larger and better known Wimbledon Common that also lies to the west which has four golf courses and horse trails.

Wimbledon's attraction remains its convenient access to central London and the open space and recreational facilities it boasts. There are both underground and mainline railway connections into west London and central London respectively along with numerous bus services.

In recent years, the sustained demand for property, especially for the larger properties of Wimbledon Village and Wimbledon Park, has seen house prices rise to amongst the highest in the outer London area. Within central Wimbledon are plenty of shops, retailers, pubs and amenities, and nearby Wimbledon Village offers a collection of exclusive bistros and restaurants.
