The lovely wall at the back of the lovely Beaufort House once had a door in it that is revealed both by the different coloured brick used to fill it and the arch that has been left in place. Even so, it is a subtle change in a wall that shows a lot of history, such as the much newer bricks in the top-left corner, and the archway can go unnoticed with a casual look.
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.

Closed arch behind Beaufort House

I have passed this without noticing the arch. You really do have an eye for the bones of a building and your photos never fail to delight. Thank you!
