The Old Goods Yard Rainham
Rainham Station goods yard was abandoned in 1962 when the station was moved to its present site. It turned into a bit of a wildlife oasis. Earlier this year the scrub was cleared and test bores drilled. Sadly for the squirrels and birds etc. Hoardings are being constructed around it and I assume it is soon to vanish under concrete.

The garden of Rainham Hall
Rainham Hall was built in 1729 for Captain John Harle, a sea-captain and merchant from South Shields. The house was transferred to the National Trust in 1949, but let to a number of private tenants. It remained closed to the public until late 2015. The garden is surprisingly large after viewing the frontage of the house.
The National Trust's website for the house can be seen at http://www.nationaltrust.org.uk/rainham-hall and the Wikpedia description is at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rainham_Hall
A nice description in The Guardian of the house's reopening can be seen at https://www.theguardian.com/artanddesign/2015/oct/08/rainham-hall-house-essex-national-trust-restored See also http://londonist.com/2015/10/rainham-hall

Parallel Lines
The picture shows the Tilbury Loop rail tracks at Rainham (Essex). It was taken from the passenger footbridge looking North West towards Dagenham. Behind the hoarding on the left is the nearly completed (at this point) Channel Tunnel rail link. To the left of the electricity pylon in the distance you can just see one of the Ford engine factory’s wind turbines.
