It is a few years now since the grounds at Thames Young Mariners were stripped of their trees and anything else that dared to grow on the land. Every time I walk along the towpath I have a good look at the land to see how well it is recovering. Progress is being made but it will be many a year before there are mature trees there again, and that assumes that they are allowed to do so.
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.
