§ Mr. Kellyasked the Minister of Health whether he is aware that the Westerham Council have been negotiating for the purchase of land for the proposed Wester-ham Recreation Ground but would not accept the owner's price; if he will state the area and present rateable value of the land in question; and whether, as the result of steps taken by the Kent County Council, the land will now be acquired and at what price?
§ Sir K. Wood:Yes, Sir. The area is nearly 12 acres and the land, being agricultural, is derated. I am informed that the Westerham Parish Council are considering an offer of an alternative site, and that it is not possible to say whether the land will be acquired, or at what price it can be obtained.
