TORN APART..

I came across this garage door on Overton Drive. The paint was peeling and someone had torn away the ivy that had been growing across it. I just really like the effect of the pieces of ivy that are left clinging to the peeling paint.

EASTER SUNDAY..

For Easter Sunday I though I would post a picture of a church but I didn't want it to be to obvious. I took this picture in the churchyard of the wonderful St Mary the Virgin in Overton Drive, it is one of the most peaceful spots you can imagine, it really is special. I like the way these low hanging branches with their new shoots contrast with the background. Have a good Sunday....

A GRAND ENTRANCE..

The piers at the start of the drive that led to Wanstead House still stand, they can be found at the junction of Overton Drive and Blake Hall Road. With the volume of traffic that pass by now it's difficult to imagine grand carriages progressing along the drive to the house. The piers are still in good condition although some of the carvings are faded, it's worth stopping though to have a close up look.
