HC Deb 14 August 1896 vol 44 c832
COLONEL WELBY (Taunton)

I beg to ask the First Commissioner of Works whether he can see his way to cause a search to be made in the lumber rooms of Windsor Castle, especially in the Round Tower, for war trophies accidentally put away there, with a view to their being cared for where they can be publicly seen?

THE FIRST COMMISSIONER OF WORKS (Mr. A. AKERS-DOUGLAS,) Kent, St. Augustine's

The lumber rooms at Windsor Castle are not under the control of the Office of Works. I am not aware that there are any trophies accidentally put away in any rooms of the Castle; but the desire of my hon. Friend that a search should be made has been conveyed by me to the Lord Chamberlain, who will, no doubt, cause inquiry to be made.
