Watch this space


Hopefully this is a chance for me to capture some "before" pictures instead of waiting for something to change and trying to work out what it looked like before. 

Ham United Group is looking for Forgotten Spaces in Ham that can be easily improved to the benefit of all and Friends of Ham Lands is considering this space which is on the riverside directly opposite one of the main paths across Ham Lands.

As the picture above shows, it is currently swamped by vegetation and the access to it is not easy.

 

A closer look shows the concrete slab which we hope may be suitable for a simple bench.

The litter, and there was quite a lot of it there, tells its own story that while the site is pretty well hidden some people have managed to find it.

 

The proposed bench would be angled to look down the river, which is why we are interested in this spot.

There is quite a bit of work to do and the first step is to assess the tree to ensure that it is safe both for anyone using the bench and also for the people working to get it there.
