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, old look
This plot on Dukes Avenue has some history. I first mentioned it in August 2007 but then in April 2008 I asked if it was an abandoned project and no progress had been made when I last looked at it in February 2009. But now it is almost ready to join its near twin and neighbour.
It looks less like the house next door the more you look at it but most people will not do that. They will just glance at it when they walk or drive past and the similar shape will fool them in to thinking that the new house has always been there and belongs there. And that is how things should be.
