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.

Spared railings at South Lodge
South Lodge is one of the very best buildings on Ham Common so it is a shame that it is largely hidden behind vegetation and cars. However, these decorative railings on the Bishops Close side are easy to see. The railings used to be above all of the low wall but all the rest were removed when iron was collected for the war effort. Their lucky escape then gives us pleasure today.
