  • One Blackfriars property development marketing suite hoarding landscape, symbolising increasing private ownership of London's public urban space. Increasingly, the UK capital is becoming privatised tracts of land where consortium corporates have developed large areas where the public either cannot access or where strict codes and security and even dress codes have been introduced. Foreign money has come from China and the Middle-East meaning that London is now largely owned by foreign companies. Ownership of flats and apartments then attracts non-domicile occupiers, turning these estates into ghost towns.

  • Detail of a rusty Wartburg 312 car standing at the kerbside in an eastern Berlin district. A sticker with the letters DDR as the German Democratic Republic (DDR in German and GDR in English) as East Germany was called during the Cold War. Any car was a highly-prized possession when ownership of luxury goods like vehicles aroused suspicion for other than Communist Party officials. This car may have been someone of rank or influence. The GDR was a self-declared socialist state, referred to in the West as a "communist state" in the Soviet Sector of occupied Germany created after the second world war and partitioned when DDR leaders built the Berlin Wall that eventually segregated Germany and Europe. The East Germany state existed from 7 October 1949 until 3 October 1990 and was a potent symbol of a divided Europe during the Cold War...

  • A union jack flies proudly in front of tall Leylandii trees in a garden at Horning on the Norfolk Broads. As a statement of British territorial ownership in sububia where an Englishman's home is his castle is reflected also in his garden and the high boundaries between him and his neighbour, with the blight of the evergreen - a screen of privacy and supremacy. Even on sites of relatively poor culture, plants have been known to grow to heights of 15 metres (49 ft) in 16 years. Their rapid, thick growth means they are sometimes used to enforce privacy, but such use can result in disputes with neighbours whose own property becomes overshadowed.[

  • Looking up towards majestically tall 100 year-old mature Ash trees and blue skies, the sun glints off a window pane in an Edwardian age semi-detached house on Ruskin Park, Denmark Hill, SE24 (its post code) South London England. It is a beauitiful winter afternoon in this inner-city suburban district of Britain's capital, approximately 5 miles south from the River Thames. A couple are walking their dogs past an elegant line of period homes that were completed in 1908, the age of innovative building in the new 20th Century. The properties overlook the borough park named after John Ruskin, the renowned artist and commentator who lived in nearby Herne Hill. It looks an affluent area, a prosperous location to invest in a mortgage in uncertain times with market prices falling during the credit crunch and recession.
