Who took these photographs

The scene-setting photography on this site is open-licence or stock, and this page names the photographer for each picture and the licence it is used under. Photographs of the houses themselves are a different matter: where one appears, it is the property’s own Instagram post, shown with consent, or a photograph the owner supplied in writing, and it is credited on the house’s own page.
