Farm outbuilding - unusual building materials
Outbuilding at Berwick Manor Farm. I don't know much about building materials, but I have never seen anything like this before. The building is made of breeze blocks, covered with these large, thin (about 1 inch) facing bricks. The building is now being used by a window-frame manufacturer.

The Federation Jewish Cemetery, Rainham
A total of 106 acres for the cemetery was purchased in 1936. It was consecrated in February 1938. Rainham has a capacity for 45-50,000 graves and is at 60% of capacity.
As can be seen here, Jewish cemeteries are always noticeable for how crowded they are with graves with no room for greenery.

Mature outbuildings at Berwick Manor Farm
These old farm outbuildings are now in business/industrial use, though there is obviously still agricultural activity going on here.

The edge of the Green Belt
Just to the west of this field is the Abbey Wood Estate. It is surprising how quickly one is out into open country although no doubt if it was not for the Green Belt these fields would have been built on by now.

A total of 106 acres for the cemetery was purchased in 1936. It was consecrated in February 1938. Rainham has a capacity for 45-50,000 graves and is at 60% of capacity.
It is interesting to see from this notice that Jewish people should visit a cemetery at least every 30 days.

"House of the Living"
This is the
Image in Rainham. Compared to secular municipal burial grounds or the classic English country churchyard the lack of vegetation makes the Jewish way of death seem rather stark to my non-religious eyes.
