These paired lodges (not altogether symmetrical) first caught my eye many years ago. On this occasion I couldn't resist the crisp light of an early February afternoon. There was a very sharp wind blowing (force 5 or 6) - notice the ripples on the big puddle. Beyond the gateway the track - Osterley Lane - crosses farmland now used for horse grazing.
