Georgian window detail, Ham Common

In a number of houses close to Ham Common, certain Georgian architectural details have survived which are seldom seen elsewhere. Here, the window is embedded in what could be termed a blank arch, with the head of the arch ornamented (perhaps with plasterwork) to resemble a fanlight. Notice also the blind-hood above the window frame, and the fender-like iron cage to hold the window box. For a more general view of the house in question, and further comment, see: http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/4060125
