Park Fences

From Colville's diary entry for May 3, 1945:

My démarche about St James's Park is bearing great fruit. Iron railings are appearing to preserve the grass and the unsightly paths trodden by the side of the lake are being dug up and resown. The Ministry of Works, in obedience to a minute which I submitted to the P. M., have taken rapid action.
