Flowers in Great South Avenue

I am not a fan of the recent work on Great South Avenue as for most of the year it leaves the avenue wide, empty and boring. Spring is different!

Soon the flowers and grasses will be cut back to the line of the trees but at the moment they are allowed to bloom to provide a colourful reminder of how beautiful the avenue can be if left to nature. This is the South-East corner looking along the avenue towards Ham House.


These flowers are at the other end of the avenue, that is the North-West corner looking along the avenue towards Ham Common.
