Long view across the Common


I think that Ham Common looks at its best from the south-east corner, opposite the Hand and Flower, where its size can be appreciated and there is no sign of traffic to blight the view.

The line of trees on the left follows the road towards Ham Street and feels rather grander than the double line of trees on the right that marks the line towards Ham House. This has suffered a bit over the years and it will take quite a few more years let before the new trees fill the gaps and look anything like as impressive as their southerly neighbours.
