  • In soft mid-morning spring sunshine, we see rising up from street-level the 5-storey houses with Doric columns in London's famous Eaton Square. Bathed in mid-morning spring sunshine, shadows from nearby trees are cast over the cream-coloured pillars of these exclusive and classically-designed properties in Belgravia. Shrubs and plants can be seen growing on the terraced balconies and all the painted surfaces are pristine. Eaton Square is one of London's three garden squares built by Thomas Cubitt and the Grosvenor family when they developed the main part of Belgravia from 1826 until 1855. Belgravia attracts actors, politicians, ambassadors, big-budget bankers, traders and Prime Ministers like Neville Chamberlain and Stanley Baldwin at number 93.

  • A sun symbol belonging to the Communist Party of Nepal (UML - Unified Marxist Leninist) is seen before elections in a wide landscape of a Himalayan valley in the Gorkha district, one of the 75 districts of central Nepal. Beyond the red-painted sign that has been painted in red on a footpath rock, unavoidable by community passers-by, are fertile terraces where rice and other agricultural crops are growing to sustain villages in these foothills. The light is clear and we can see into the far distance to valleys and hills beyond.

People stand with drinks in their hands in the evening summer sunshine and we see the tall Natwest tower and other banking institutions plus the much older Monument on the far right, commemorating the Great Fire of London in 1666, when the old Elizabethan city was burned to the ground, making way for the newer metropolis. But the architecture we see here is largely from the 1980s building boom of the Thatcherism era.

  • A lightning bolt spreads across night skies over South London terraced homes. .Lightning is an atmospheric discharge of electricity accompanied by thunder, which typically occurs during thunderstorms, and sometimes during volcanic eruptions or dust storms. In the atmospheric electrical discharge, a leader of a bolt of lightning can travel at speeds of 220,000 km/h (140,000 mph), and can reach temperatures approaching 30,000 °C (54,000 °F), hot enough to fuse silica sand into glass channels known as fulgurites which are normally hollow and can extend some distance into the ground. There are some 16 million lightning storms in the world every year.

  • The statue of poet John Betjeman by Martin Jennings looks up to the new artwork entitled 'I Want My Time With You' by British (Britpop) artist Tracy Emin which hangs over the main concourse at St. Pancras Station, on 10th April 2018, in London, England.

  • A lady sits outside in morning sunshine on the terrace of her B+B guesthouse in the Devon seaside town of Paignton. It is late morning and a lady has emerged from her bead and breakfast. Sunlight is quite high in the sky and the shadows of a vine that is growing across the roof of the building's terrace, is seen on the wall behind the woman. She is seated reading a magazine in a garden chair and is surrounded by colourful flowers in their prime. Well-painted original victorian railings that act as a sort of ballustrade are in front of the female. In the window is a scene of typical seaside Englishness. Serviettes are splayed out on a table along with breakfast or dinner items awaiting guests at the next meal.

  • As traffic zooms past, the art installation called 'House' stands alone on a now-empty and house-less East London street, on 2nd December 1993, in London, England. The contours of the structure have been inverted to reveal an inside-out version of the original building. It is a concrete cast of the inside of an entire Victorian terraced house completed in autumn 1993 and exhibited at the location of the original property -- 193 Grove Road -- in East London (all the houses in the street had earlier been knocked down by the council). Created by the artist Rachel Whiteread CBE (born 1963) this is her best-known sculpture. It won her the Turner Prize (the first woman to do so) for best young British artist in 1993 before being controversially demolished by the council in January 1994.

  • A window cleaner leathers down a freshly washed window of a terraced house in The Dingle district of Liverpool, England. Next door, the neighbour's favourite colour is obviously red - the colour of his home, his car and his favourite football team too - Liverpool FC. There is a sense of pride here, unlike other areas of the city where derelict streets are still common. Here, the paintwork is fresh, the cars are spotless and the red house has a burglar alarm on the wall. The sign there is a degree of wealth in this neighbourhood.

  • A wide landscape of dereliction and poverty during the early 1990s in the city of Liverpool, England. The Liver building is seen in the far distance as a symbol of the city centre beyond an empty street up which a solitary man walks his dog. Empty buildings await destruction after the terraced housing has long been razed to the ground in the 1960s - the impoverished population having moved out for a better life elsewhere.

  • In a rear alleyway between poor terraced housing in Liverpool, England, we see many black bin-bags are left against industrial brick walls awaiting collection during the Merseyside dustmans' strike of 1991. The cobbled alley of these 'back to back' houses are in a poor area, south of the city centre and home to deprived families. The industrial action against the local authority was a health problem for Liverpool during the summer of '91 when streets filled with rubbish. Vermin like rats ran around and public city parks filled with every kind of refuse and garbage. Few of these back-to-backs now exist after being cleared to allow construction of high-rise tower-blocks and flats.

  • The rare Victoria Cross is worn on the chest of the celebrated Nepali war veteran Bhanu Bhagta Gurung (also written Bhanubhakta), an ex-soldier of the British Gurkha regiment who in the second world war, earned his medals from repeated bravery against Japanese positions in Burma. He sits here on the terrace of his home, above the misty valley of Gorkha, Central Nepal. He is one of the last survivors of the remarkably brave men  who helped defeat the enemy in the jungles of south-east Asia. Gurung is the name of his Nepalese tribe (like the Sherpas who also come from the high Himalayan Kingdom). His company commander described him as "a smiling, hard-swearing and indomitable soldier who in a battalion of brave men was one of the bravest". Born September 1921 - died March 1 2008.

  • As a cyclist pedals his way along a path, a man enjoys late afternoon sunshine in Brockwell Park, Herne Hill, London England. Seen from a central hill in this Victorian-designed open space, there are the terraced housing and larger tenement buildings behind that rise above the tree line in this undulating landscape. The person on the bicycle has been caught between two tree trunks as he approaches the man relaxing on the park bench and another pedestrian is seen further in the distance walking near a red car. It is scene of serenity among the urban sprawl of a capital city, where quiet places are precious and idyllic corners of greenery are highly-sought after. The Brockwell Hall Park Estate was created and landscaped in 1811. It was purchased for the people of Lambeth & Southwark and opened as a public park in 1892 by Lord Rosebery.

  • Surrounded by black bin-bags during the Merseyside dustmans' strike of 1991, two young "Scouse' girls lean against a brick wall in a rear alleyway between poor terraced housing in Liverpool, England. There is an older, taller white teenage girl with blonde hair dressed in a blue shell-suit and a shorter and younger friend of Asian-descent. Looking suspicious and amused at something across the cobbled alley of these 'back to back' houses in a poor area, South of the city centre, home to deprived families.

  • Having packed nearly all their possessions into a removal company's truck, a family have left this terraced house apart from a telephone that sits on the carpet in the middle of the carpet, on a ground floor home in Herne Hill, South London England UK. The family have taken the precaution of using a professional removal company, rather than trying to move themselves,  and we see a yellow storage van parked outside in the street ready to drive  the house's contents to the new property. This family home is now empty awaiting its new occupants who will soon arrive with their own items.

  • The message in graffiti lettering "Don't come here they attack you" has been written on a wall outside a house in the Toxteth area of Liverpool, Merseyside England. Flat 1A has a bright red-painted door and red bricks in an otherwise poverty-stricken district of this poor inner-city where crime and social deprivation has become the normal way of life for Scouses (someone from Liverpool). We see the red theme carried throughout this image of threat and ill-discipline where survival is clearly hard. These 'back to back' terraced houses have largely been demolished during Liverpool's regeneration during the 60s and 70s though some remain, accommodating unfortunate families on low-income.
