HC Deb 05 November 1919 vol 120 cc1515-6W
Mr. G. BALFOUR

asked the Secretary of State for War whether the premises at 2, Adamson Road, Hampstead, were vacated by the Royal Air Force in the spring of this year; how long they were allowed to remain vacant; whether it is now necessary to appropriate them as sup- plementary sleeping accommodation for the Royal Horse Artillery Barracks, a mile away, at St. John's Wood; and what prospect there is of the said premises becoming soon available for civilian housing accommodation, in view of the fact that the Hampstead Borough Council have been pressing the owner of these premises to divide them into maisonettes to help to relieve the existing house famine?

Mr. CHURCHILL

I am inquiring into this, and will write to my hon. Friend as soon as possible.
