HC Deb 18 July 1961 vol 644 c110W
40. Mr. Boyden

asked the Minister of Works what progress is being made with a comprehensive scheme to preserve industrial monuments.

Lord John Hope

I am awaiting the completion of the survey of industrial monuments which is being undertaken by the Staffordshire County Council in collaboration with the Council for British Archæology. I hope that the results of the pilot survey in Staffordshire will give me some indication of the size and nature of the problem and how best to tackle it.
