Nonsuch park and its manicured lawns
Playful dogs running up to greet our group
Four old concrete posts we passed
All that's left of King Henry's Palace.

A small jail house beside a pub in Ewell
Once used to can the pixilated locals
The muddy banks of the Hogsmill river
Down to a feast at the old watchman's house.

The babbling bubbles of the Beverley Brook
Caesar's dubious old Iron Age fort upon a hill 
Wimbledon's windmill now bereft of sails
The Gherkin seen from the park club house.
