HC Deb 27 November 1882 vol 275 cc94-5
COLONEL ALEXANDER

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department, Whether, in the event of the demolition of the Church of St. Olave, Jewry, he will take stops to protect the remains interred in the church and adjoining churchyard?

SIR WILLIAM HARCOURT

I find, Sir, on reference to the Ecclesiastical Commissioners, that, though it was in contemplation to demolish the Church of St. Olave, Jewry, the matter has not yet assumed a definite form. In any case, measures will be taken to protect the remains of those interred in the church and adjoining churchyard.
