HC Deb 15 November 1978 vol 958 c240W
Mr. Stephen Ross

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment what annual savings he anticipates making from the decision to remove custodial care from a number of ancient monuments and buildings in England and Wales.

Mr. Shore

A review of the staffing of ancient monuments has shown that savings of about £300,000 a year could be made by closing some in the winter and increasing the number at which admission is free.
