HC Deb 24 July 1908 vol 193 cc505-6
MR. SILCOCK (Somersetshire, Wells)

To ask the Prime Minister whether the Government will include in the terms of reference to the Royal Commission for reporting upon the preservation of ancient monuments an inquiry into the desirability of taking steps for the protection from injury or desecration of scenes of great natural beauty or historic interest, such as the Cheddar Cliffs, in Somerset, which are being seriously injured by quarrying operations.

(Answered by Mr. Asquith.) The terms of reference will be similar to those of the Scottish Commission.
