The village of Upper Slaughter in the Gloucestershire Cotswolds is one mile away from Lower Slaughter and sits on a gentle grassy slope above the stream that connects the two villages. Once the village was dominated by a Norman castle but all that can be seen of it today are the remains of the motte…

The famous London Bridge on a dark day. It wasn’t really as dark as this, I just tweaked it a bit in Lightroom to give it a brooding look.

Another image of the beautiful English Lake District, giving the appearance of an imposing mountain chain. These hills would be no more than 700m high! 1/50 f14 60mm ISO100 To buy a print of this photo go to the North Western Fells Lake District photo To licence this photo email or contact us

As a regular visitor to England I’ve accumulated many photos of one of England’s gems, the Lake District in the North West. It’s like a mini Switzerland without the ruggedness and snow caps (although there is sometimes snow in winter). The tallest mountain, if you could call it is less than 1000 metres. As for…

Actually some of the overground is underground – in fact under water through the oldest tunnel under a navigable river, the Thames Tunnel.

However wondering along brick lane and surrounds we spied a lot of street art. Brick lane is now also home to artists and…

One of the more interesting developments in east central London is the resurgence of English food which, it has to be said, has, in the past, been notoriously bad! But here we discovered a couple of places doing quality traditional English food, the Albion and St John ’s. Kedgeree (look it up) shepherd’s pie and…

Strolling up and around commercial road in Shoreditch past pubs of old and Christ church Spitalfields, there are markets everywhere! Old and new Spitalfields, Petticoat lane, upmarket and further on Brick lane market. A hangover from the rag trade that used to be the main industry here many years ago. As you can there are…

This is the infamous gherkin in London. With its shape, the fact that it has the grave of a roman girl at its base and was built to replace the Baltic exchange building that was badly damaged by an IRA bomb; it is an unusual building on the outskirts of an unusual area of London.…
