HC Deb 09 February 1897 vol 46 c18
MAJOR WYNDHAM-QUIN (Glamorgan, S.)

I beg to ask the Under Secretary of State for War if he can state when the work of constructing the promised fort on Barry Island is to be commenced?

*THE UNDER SECRETARY or STATE FOR WAR (Mr. BRODRICK,) Surrey, Guildford

Delay has arisen pending a satisfactory settlement with the District Council as to firing rights over a road in front of the intended battery, but as soon as this can be overcome it will be proceeded with.
