Wimbledon Common is surrounded with seats of the nobility and gentry; particularly Wimbledon Lodge, built by Gerard de Visme, Esq. This is an elegant modern structure; the architecture of which is in the most chaste and beautiful stile; ornamented with emblems, etc. The grounds are also laid out with superior taste.
