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.

Petersham House and topiary
Petersham House, like many other former hunting lodges locally, is a solid slab of brick riddled with white Georgian windows. It is no better than its neighbours, and is less interesting than some, yet it holds its own in a strong peer group.
The lawn next to the house may be a little to big for my liking. It is rescued from mediocrity through regularly planted bushes that have been teased in to geometric shapes.
