What is Precious?

SOUTH London residents are on a collision course with the council over plans to put a commercial football complex at the heart of the common.
 
An online petition is aiming to get 1,000 signatures by Easter to help stop the plan, which will involve 10 - 12 artificial pitches on an area of grassland at the centre of the Tooting Triangle.
