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.

New house coming
"Garden Grabbing" as an emotive term that is often thrown around to decry the building of new houses in the space between existing one but this is to over simplify a complex subject. Some infilling can make good use of under utilised space and the alternative could be to claim large areas of open land.
This is one infill project that I approve of but because it's a controversial subject I'm not going to say where it is. I had a good chat with the person in the house next door (who came out to see why I was taking photos), learned a lot about the local houses and got an offer to go back in six months when the house in finished. I'll do that.
