The Gatehouse on Ham Common




The Gatehouse sits on the left side of Great South Avenue as it leaves Ham Common and heads for Ham House. The very public and pretty front garden is kept in the style of the period of the house while the private and also pretty rear garden is designed for family use.

Family use means things like a lawn to play on but the garden does much more than that and there are lots of things to delight the eye from the neatly arranged flower pots on the steps to the upper lawn and a couple of discrete statues.
