HC Deb 15 July 1947 vol 440 cc35-6W
96. Sir R. Glyn

asked the Minister of Works whether his attention has been drawn to the litter and rubble left lying in Hyde Park to the North of the East end of the Serpentine; and whether instructions will be given to the R.Es., London District, to remove the barbed wire, stakes, pipes, etc., that constitute a danger to children besides being unsightly and unworthy of the other amenities of this park.

Mr. Durbin

This area in Hyde Park was occupied during the war by the camp attached to the A.A. gun site. The removal of the foundations of the huts is at present in hand. It is hoped to complete the clearance of the site and to remove the surrounding barbed wire fence before the end of August, after which the site will be resown with grass and returned to public use.
