On the left that's where my schoolfriend Elaine Keemer lived 1962 - 68 and at the end Peter Moule ..

Do they read HOL?

Stunning picture Hugh - I take note the estate agent board on the left hand corner "Let by" - I think that one is still their? and I assume its horse manure in the roads ? which was one of the biggest problems of polution in its day? Great stuff.

Amazing how the trees/bushes have grown since the previous (other) shot.. There is also another shot of the 'Gardens' on another Garden somewhere..

Yes, Hugh, I have seen it.  But many thanks -- I can't get enough of it.

Everything looks so compact and unified. Lovely.

I imagine, they were planned as pleached limes, but it looks like they're already getting out of hand!
