'Footpath to Richmond Park' or 'Footpath to Bog Gate' would be better titles than 'Foot gate to Sheen Common' which doesnt make much sense. What's a 'Foot gate'? and you're facing towards the park not the common.

I had no idea the cottage was modern! You've done a fabulous job of creating a building that's in keeping with the adjacent Pembroke Lodge.
