HC Deb 15 May 1922 vol 154 c55W
Mr. MILLS

asked the Secretary of State for War if he is aware that a public esplanade was closed to the public at Ipswich during the War, and that gates and fences erected during that period still stand; and will he give orders for these obstructions to be removed between the dock and the river Orwell, and restore to the public the right of access which has existed for centuries?

Sir R. SANDERS

The War Department was not concerned in the closing of this esplanade, and is not in a position to give orders as suggested.
