Ham Photos is a growing archive of photos of Ham (at the meeting of Richmond upon Thames and Kingston upon Thames in south-west London), where I have lived since 1996. It captures the small changes that are easily missed and delights in the unusual, the unexpected and the unnoticed.

Newark Lodge is being refurbushed
I'm astonished to discover that I've never posted a picture of Newark Lodge before. It's a local landmark due to its position on Petersham Road just as it bends to allow Sudbrook Lane to join it. It's height and closeness to the road give it a commanding presence which it did not quite live up to due to general dishevelment.
It was sold recently and was described by the selling agents as "in need of refurbishment throughout". And this is now in progress. I hope that when it is completed that Newark Lodge can add clean and bright to its attributes allowing it to make the most of its location.
