Locals living close to the All England Lawn Tennis Club could be forgiven for feeling frustrated when they're surrounded by thousands of sporting fanatics for a fortnight every year.

While standstill traffic, droves of cars and clogged pavements during the world-famous tournament can be a pain, some savvy residents have used it as an opportunity to cash in.

But some Wimbledon residents are pocketing up to £10,000 in just two short weeks by renting out their driveways, and even their homes, to keen tennis fans from around the globe.

On some neighbouring roads, which have have strict signs banning any type of parking, certain homeowners allow vehicles to stay on their drive - for a fee.

Daily parking charges range from £25 to a whopping £150, with some residents squeezing in as many as four cars at once.
