ELECTRIC CAR CHARGING

points are to be installed in the Moreton Triangle, following a successful review of the local area. These are to be installed in the coming weeks and if popular, more could be installed across Pimlico.

An estimated 128 people have been killed and 2,256 seriously injured in speed-related collisions across the capital in the past 3 years.

Westminster City Council want to cut speed limits to 20mph across the entire borough in an attempt to improve safety for pedestrians and cyclists. Westminster is one of the safest, cleanest and greenest cities in the country, and the introduction of a Westminster-wide 20mph zone is an important part of this.

Pimlico attracts rough-sleepers, who are preyed on by drug dealers.

Few rough sleepers have any local connection but most are persuaded to come in and get help; a small core though is embedded.

This year the council has persuaded partners, including the Cathedral and businesses to enclose the Cathedral Piazza colonnades to stop antisocial behaviour.

A consultation runs until December 10 and will determine whether every residential road in Westminster’s 8.9 square miles becomes 20mph.

Police team have been working to arrest some of the higher-level dealers with a number of successes, and by closing down properties being used as drug crime bases.

Roads outside 39 schools are already 20 mph. The council says it wants to “make Westminster a safer, healthier and cleaner environment for everyone ”.

If you’re concerned about antisocial behaviour and serious criminality, then call 111 or 999 respectively. You can support local police by logging issues you see on the Vincent Square police website. Your reports help local police build evidence trails and bid for extra resources.

London Mayor Sadiq Khan, has announced that all Transport for London roads within the congestion charge zone — much of it in Westminster —would become 20 mph by next May.

TACHBROOK STREET MARKET GOES GREEN

Westminster has declared a “climate emergency ” and vowed to ensure the borough is “carbon neutral ” by 2040 to cut air pollution.

Food traders at Tachbrook Street market are taking part in an innovative pilot scheme which aims to save the use of nearly 4,000 single-use plastic containers.

The council is working with start-up business CauliBox, offering customers the chance to buy their lunch in a reusable lunchbox which is then returned, professionally cleaned and used again. If it is successful the scheme will be rolled out to all of Westminster’s markets.

TRACK GRINDING HAS BEGUN

with TfL agreeing to slow down night tube trains to 30mph on the Victoria Line, and reduce the tube noise.

This has only happened because of the pressure put on TfL by residents, London Assembly Member, Tony Devenish and your local councillors.

HELP THE HIDDEN NETWORK END ROUGH SLEEPING IN WESTMINSTER

Following years of TfL ignoring Pimlico, hundreds of residents have signed a petition demanding they meet with residents and take their concerns about tube noise seriously.

Many of us are unsure of what to do when we see someone sleeping on the streets and for some, giving money directly seems to be the only solution.

A hidden network of dedicated professionals and volunteers is working around the clock to end rough sleeping in Westminster. They provide services such as counselling, befriending and addiction recovery, & they help with securing long-term employment & accommodation.

The network's partners are Turning Point, The Connection at St Martin's, St Mungo's, The Passage, Look Ahead, West London Mission and Westminster City Council's specialised services.

In August, Deputy Mayor Heidi Alexander met a delegation of local people and councillors in one of the worst affected flats in Pimlico and was confronted with the justifiable frustration of local people.

Westminster spends more resource on the issue of rough sleeping than any other council in the UK, but more still needs to be done. If you are concerned about someone sleeping rough please alert StreetLink using their app, or via the streetlink.org.uk. Your alert will help local outreach teams try to connect with those you are worried about.

Following the meeting two important concessions were won. First, TfL agreed to re-grind the entire length of the track between Pimlico and Victoria. The second was an agreement to slow the speed of the night tube trains to 30mph.

ALL CHANGE AT ST. JAMES PARK STATION

55 BROADWAY

The famous art-deco former headquarters for London Transport, 55 Broadway has been sold on a long leasehold agreement. The newly formed Integrity International Group, backed by property and hotel developer, Tony Matharu, has taken a 150 year lease.

was designed by Charles Holden and built between 1927 and 1929 as a new headquarters for the Underground Electric Railways Company of London (UERL), the forerunner of London Underground.

In the 1920s it was considered radical for a company to occupy its own premises rather than to rent accommodation. Adams, Holden and Pearson, the architects were commissioned by the Group

Matharu brothers, as a family own the majority of Grange Hotels, although following a long family argument, they sold the four largest of the 13 hotels earlier this year for nearly £1 billion. Tony Matharu has now set up a new company to invest again in property, with 55 Broadway his first purchase.

The District Railway constructed London's second underground line in the late 1860s under Westminster's streets between St James's Park and the then recently constructed Victoria Street.

Both the new line and St James's Park station opened in 1868, and 30 years later the railway company transferred its offices from Victoria Street to new premises over the station. As the District Railway Company and its successors expanded their control over public transport operations, the offices were rebuilt and extended.

By the late 1920s, the Board of what had become the Underground Group and wanted all its staff in one new purpose-built block on the site.

55 Broadway was built in 1929 and was London’s first skyscraper, and noted for its cruciform design to let light into the office space, and for Jacob Epstein’s sculptures on the outside.

The building is supported by 700 concrete piles sunk below basement level. 19 massive load-bearing steel girders span the railway, and special insulation was used to reduce vibration from the trains. Above ground, the building was constructed around a steel girder skeleton and faced with 2,200 cubic metres of high quality Portland stone.

Faced with Portland stone and covering a site with an irregular footprint, the upper office floors of the building are on a cruciform plan, stepping back towards the central clock tower at the top. The cruciform design afforded the optimum level of natural light to the offices. Previously the ground floor was also given over to London Transport offices, including a travel information centre, cash office and a library. The whole building straddles St. James's Park tube station, the east and west wings being immediately above the railway tunnel. It was the tallest steel-framed office building in London. Use was made of Norwegian granite for the plinth facings and black Belgian marble for the column capitals at low level. In addition there was extensive use of decorative bronze features throughout the building.

TfL has been looking to vacate the building for some years and the sale comes after TfL’s agent, Knight Frank put the property on the market as an entire unit in May 2019 for a reported £110 million.

The transaction also includes the later built annexes at 100 Petty France and Wing Over Station.

The leasehold sale includes the ground floor retail units, but not the ticket hall and other operational property. There will be no material impact upon the operation of London Underground at St James’s Park Stn. TfL won’t move its remaining office staff out for up to a year.

Halfway along the north and east facades are a matched pair of sculptures, Day and Night by Jacob Epstein. The modernism and graphic nakedness of these sculptures created public outrage on their unveiling. In the end, Epstein agreed to remove 1.5 inches from the penis of the smaller figure on Day.

In 2015, Westminster Council approved plans to convert the building into flats, but the sale was delayed & the application expired in 2018.

It’s not been officially revealed yet whether the new owner is looking at turning it into flats, or a hotel. It is a listed building and heavily protected from a heritage perspective, so don’t expect radical changes to this art-deco icon of London.

On the 10th floor was a dining room for the chairman and senior executives. At this level there are also four roof gardens.

The building was directly hit during the Blitz in 1941. It has been extensively refurbished, most notably the ground floor alterations of the late-1980s by Manser and Partners. These created a shopping arcade at ground level. This work was done to a high standard using much of the original material and design features.

The sale of the long lease is part of TfL’s aim to cut its accommodation costs by £110 million by 2022.

EATON SQUARE CONCERTS

EPICURE AND COUTURE

As readers of this magazine will know, Friends of Music has presented concerts in St Peter’s Eaton Square for over 12 years.

The concerts have contributed to the cultural life of Belgravia and the surrounding areas. Audiences have grown in size and enthusiasm, and the reputation of St Peter’s as an attractive venue with wonderful acoustics and a warm and friendly atmosphere is now well established.

Do ladies still lunch? With the growing international band of millionaires and their women what do they support other than dubious works of art? What of those ladies of the recent past who were known as XRays and wore couture in wonderful restaurants to show their clothes, their jewels and either a new and wealthy spouse or an attractive "toy boy ".

The haunts for this running the gamut were wonderful places with great chefs and superb food offerings. Alas the ladies who lunched did not partake, they considered their figures and nibbled on a leaf or two and sipped mineral water.

However, proceeds of sales of tickets to classical music concerts do not begin to cover the cost of producing those concerts. The shortfall at Friends of Music has throughout its existence has been covered by generous donations from sponsors and supporters. These include public bodies, commercial entities, grants and donations by institutions and individuals. Without their support concerts could not have been presented.

What was interesting was this was the beginning of the era of waste.

Clothing that was barely worn and food that was not consumed.

Huge amounts of materials and labour to achieve something so temporary and quickly to be discarded. And only a knowing and dedicated band could afford both.The dishes were classic and their ingredients familiar. The costumes were becoming and the designers recognized without identification, their cut and styling were sufficient to be recognized by the cognescenti.

Despite the success of our spring 2019 season, the financial results fell far short of expectations. This has resulted in the Board reluctantly deciding that they should no longer continue with the concerts and that Friends of Music should close. The current environment does not provide a basis for sustaining Eaton Square Concerts.

Friends of Music are planning to give one last concert on 21st November 2019, which will be a celebration of the years of pleasure which Eaton Square Concerts have given to so many. The concert will be performed by the Kirkman Quartet.

Those ladies who lunched have been replaced by the denisons of the red carpets.

Their figures are now toned to the like of circus performers. Dining now is of strange substitutes for food, energy bars and the like or small but costly plates in the new emporia for dining. Places that come and go with the rapidity of jet aircraft. Each week another esoteric offering only Google can identify. As a senior citizen, I am likely to be aware of my fellow diners and I find they are young for the most part, rarely it would seem older than 40. They are from the class who can afford expensive but often inadequate dining and seem to be satisfied as long as the location is top of the trend list.

Celebratory Concert 21st November 2019

KIRKMAN QUARTET: St Peter's Prize Winners 2019 PROGRAMME: Frank Bridge: Novelleten for String Quartet Haydn: String Quartet Op.76, No.1 Purcell: Chacony in G minor (arr. Britten) Debussy: String Quartet The concert will be at St Peter's Church, 119 Eaton Sq, SW1

What do this generation dine on when not in restaurants? Judging from the trash they scatter outside their dwellings, mainly pizza (see the empty boxes) other delivered items and ready meals.

And I wonder, is it at all satisfying as a substitute for a proper meal?

These thoughts are the prelude to my reversing all this extravagance.

I live alone and dine out perhaps twice monthly. I start days with a simple breakfast, a substantial lunch and prepare an appealing dinner. Each day I follow this routine. At least once during the week I have one or more guests either at lunch or dinner time.

For a single person and a cat my food bills are likely higher than average. I maintain a larder stocked with the basics required for my cooking. I can spend £10. for the requirements of what I will need to add to what is on hand for this week of solo dining with a one time single guest. If you would like to try for the same.....

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Reading your article on Wilfred Brambell reminded me that he was a very regular customer at my restaurant Grumbles in Pimlico.

Quite often Wilfred would pick .up the bill for everyone in the restaurant.Towards the end when he was getting a bit sad he couldn't afford to do it any more so he just stopped coming.

I can't remember which years he came but I started Grumbles in 1964 and it is still thriving and full of memories. Jeremy Friend Further making just so much nonsense is that Jeremy Corbyn stands as much chance of becoming our next Prime Minister as does Jo Swinson.

Harry Bourne

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Having read Mr. Zetter's article on British politics, it occurred to me as a non-member of any party it might be worth enlarging this on a little.

Currently, the Brexit Party is enjoying popularity evidently based narrow flag-waving nationalistic populism. In turn, this seemingly rests on a "Good-old-days " nostalgia. In the event of another Scottish referendum being possible will the Brexit Party be equally thrilled about Scotland also "taking back their courts, commerce, etc " on Scotland leaving the UK? What will the same party make of a situation whereby the Catholic/Nationalistic element becomes dominant in Northern Ireland and possibly votes to sever ties with the UK, will Brexiteers be equally enthusiastic?

A FLOWER ARRANGER

Davy D’Agostino, 42, was replenishing floral displays at Yotam Ottolenghi's Belgravia restaurant in Motcomb Street when he slipped up a flight of stairs while carrying a heavy goldfish bowl-sized vase.

It smashed and glass shards sliced through the flesh and tendons of Mr D’Agostino’s wrist, leaving him badly wounded on the narrow staircase.

He was rushed to hospital for surgery after the incident in August 2014.

The former barman initially blamed defective stairs at the restaurant-deli for the fall, suing Ottolenghi Ltd. However, he withdrew the case and instead claimed compensation from his former boss, florist Caroline Farthing, and her company Farthing Flowers Ltd. Ms Farthing hired him to accompany her to clients’ premises to replenish flower displays.

The Liberal Democrats are charged with being neither Liberal any longer and not democratic because they oppose the Brexit vote. If their critics are really so exercised about democracy, a quick look at how it is that around 90,000 members of a single party can elect the leader of the British Government for a population of about 65 million? The more so given that we have now had two such contests without seeking a General Election. Curious isn't it that the same party is now accusing opposition parties of being anti-democratic they are saying they want elections but not choosing to do so right now.

Judge Christopher Lethem ruled in favour of Mr D’Agostino, finding he had been told to carry the vase up and down stairs to be emptied, cleaned and filled with six litres of water, which was an “inherently dangerous ” task. Mr D’Agostino had received about 45 minutes of training in lifting and carrying, flower arranging and other parts of the job.

Those other parties are picking not to do so at a time that is convenient for them not for the Conservatives, after all this is precisely what the Conservatives did ( & does anyone recall the acidic Johnson remarks re. same situation when office passed from Blair to Brown?). It might be wondered quite why the deem Labour to be such a threat to them. When the past of Boris Johnson is raised, his fellow Cabinet members become curiously reticent an/or absent-minded.

Another response is along the lines of this is all years in the past.

Ms Farthing told the court that “not in a million years ” would she have told her employee to carry the heavy vase up and down the stairs, arguing Mr D’Agostino was to blame as he should have used a watering can to fill the vase. The evidence was dismissed by the judge.

Ms Farthing and her company were found liable for the injury, adjourning the case to a later date when the amount in damages will be decided. It is estimated that Mr D’Agostino could receive up to £100,000 for physical and psychological injuries.

Looming large here is Labour when led by messrs. Attlee, Blair and Corbyn. The charge of Communism is not new when used of Labour, as it was used by Winston Churchill of the Attlee Government. The interviewee noted just above also referred to Tony Blair in terms as a so-called seeker of truth and does so without a hint or irony or recognition of his leader and the questions about his relationship to truth(s). Yet these interviewees may be remarkably forgetful about their own their but can recall that of Labour in fantastic detail. Criticism of Corbyn's Labour is largely that past and its links with perceived terrorist links. This plainly overlooks the negotiations of Thatcher's Gov. and the IRA. Should perhaps forget this "as it was years ago ".

If the Conservative Party was interested is such matters, they would well do to look closely at the antecedents of the DUP on the grounds of this party propping up the the present UK Government but probably more on the basis of the official title of the Conservative Party is the Conservative and Unionist Party & recall the Unionist part of the DUP or Democratic Unionist Party (& don't forget they prop up the current British Gov.). The supposed Conservative fear of the Labour Party is hard to fathom but it is not real, Jeremy Corbyn is a straw man to act as propaganda.

TRUMP TRIUMPHANT?

DON’T LET THE DUKE OF WESTMINSTER DEMOLISH OUR HOMES!

There is a year to go before the next Presidential elections, but Donald Trump has been in continuous campaign mode for years.

Indeed, he filed his re-election campaign with the Federal Election Commission on the very day he took office.

We are the residents of Cundy Street and Walden House and we need your help!

This time around, as the incumbent, Trump will have no problem raising funds. When he ran against Hilary Clinton, she outspent him by $700m to $400m. Normally in the United States the candidate with the most money wins. That is because there is no limit on the amount of money that can be spent on radio and TV advertising, and very little constraint on how hard-hitting attack ads can be.

Trump triumphed in 2016 partly because he was a well-known TV personality, but also because of his highly effective slogan of ‘Make America Great Again’. He also used mass rallies and twitter to bypass the mainstream media, and to compensate for his lack of budgetary firepower.

The property group Grosvenor, owned by the Duke of Westminster, wants to demolish our homes. This will destroy our community and uproot us from our homes.

The selection of Hilary Clinton as the Democrat Party candidate also helped Trump. Being married to former President Bill Clinton firmly marked her down as the establishment candidate, and her years as Secretary of State meant that she brought a lot of baggage with her.

The Duke of Westminster owns more land than the Queen. He is the richest landlord in the UK with an estimated wealth of £9 billion, which at the age of 28 makes him the richest person under 30 in the world. He does not need to do this to us.

This time around there is no stand-out candidate for the Democrats. The original field of 20 plus has been whittled down, but none of the candidates really scare the Republicans. The firebrand Senator Bernie Sanders has probably been ruled out by his recent heart procedure, whilst Joe Biden – nicknamed ‘Creepy Joe’ by Trump after his hair sniffing exploits – may well have been knocked out of the race by his son’s business activities.

We are a community that have been living in this area for over 40 years. Young families who have children that attend the local church school, elderly residents that should not be worried about losing their homes but rather be enjoying their retirement, single parents, and families that have been living here for generations.

We are a community, we live amongst friends and family and now face the possibility of having our community fragmented and destroyed.

Walden House is owned by Grosvenor, but historically has been leased to Westminster Council for council housing provision. Grosvenor are now cancelling the lease and plan to demolish the building.

Which leaves Elizabeth Warren, the academic and senior Senator for Massachusetts since 2013. She has been dubbed ‘Pocahontas’

by Trump, in reference to her efforts to leverage her extremely tenuous connection to the Cherokee nation. She is nevertheless a very smart operator, a highly experienced politician, and a good campaigner. The question will be whether the Democrats want to put another woman up against the macho Trump.

The Cundy Street flats are a mixture of affordable and market rent accommodation next to Walden House. Many of the residents are elderly and have lived in the area their whole lives. These too will be knocked down.

We are facing homelessness and the break up of our community.

We will not be able to afford similar housing in the area.

The most likely person to defeat the incumbent President remains Trump himself. The corruption scandal that has damaged Joe Biden has also damaged Trump, because of his clumsy efforts to bully Ukraine in to providing information on Hunter Biden. This affair could lead to impeachment proceedings – but not a successful impeachment. But the odds are that Trump will triumph under his re-election slogan ‘Keep America Great ’, unless he chooses to commit political suicide by twitter.

There is nothing wrong with these beautiful buildings - Grosvenor just want to make more money. This is simply about putting profit before people. This is valuable land, and we are seen as getting in the way of building high-rise luxury investment flats.

We call on Grosvenor and Westminster City Council to cancel the plans to demolish Cundy Street Flats and Walden House.

MAJOR WALTER CLOPTON WINGFIELD MVO

five and ten guineas. In his version the game was played on an hour-glass shaped court and the net was higher (4 feet 8 inches).

The service had to be made from a diamond-shaped box at one end only and the service had to bounce beyond the service line instead of in front of it. He adopted the Rackets-based system of scoring where games consisted of 15 points (called 'aces').

In order to differentiate his game, he named it Sphairistikè (which was poor Greek using a feminine adjective meaning "pertaining to a ball game" without an appropriate noun.)

was born on 16 October 1833 in Ruabon, Denbighshire. He was of an English family traceable back to before the Norman conquest. Walter was brought up by his uncle and great uncle.

He was educated at Rossall School, and in 1851 entered the Royal Military College, Sandhurst. He was commissioned a Cornet in the 1st Dragoon Guards and served in India. In 1858 Wingfield became a captain and in 1860 he took part in the campaign in China and was present at the capture of Peking. He returned to England in 1861 and retired from the Dragoon Guards a year later.

During the decade he was based at his family estate, Rhysnant, Llandrinio, Montgomeryshire, before moving into London in 1867.

He was a Justice of the Peace for the county and served in the Montgomeryshire Yeomanry, joining as Lieutenant in 1864, appointed adjutant of the regiment in 1868, and promoted Major in 1874.

In 1870 he was appointed to the Honourable Corps of Gentlemen at Arms, giving him some employment at the courts of Queen Victoria and her son Edward VII. He was made MVO in 1902, retiring from the Corps in 1909.

Lawn tennis was becoming an important adjunct to cricket at the Marylebone Cricket Club and was played at Lord's Cricket Ground. In 1875 John Moyer Heathcote instigated a meeting at the MCC to establish a universal set of rules and Wingfield was invited to participate.

Wingfield's hourglass court and scoring method were adopted and Wingfield considered his sport was now entrusted to the MCC. During this time he suffered personal tragedies including the developing mental illness of his wife and the death of his three young sons and he lost all interest in the game. In 1877 the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club launched the Wimbledon Championship and prior to this, in cooperation with the MCC representatives, developed a new set of rules that excluded some of Wingfield's introductions. Wingfield authored two tennis works: The Book of the Game (1873) and The Major's Game of Lawn Tennis (1874).

In the late 1860s Wingfield was experimenting with a lawn version of tennis. Vulcanised rubber balls offered an opportunity to develop from the indoor game of real tennis and there were many who had the leisure time to pursue the sport and who owned croquet lawns that could be adapted for it. The precise date that Wingfield brought it to the public is uncertain. Lord Lansdowne claimed that in 1869 Major Wingfield gave a demonstration of the game to him in the garden of his Berkeley Square house, although in that year Wingfield was not a major. Another attribution was to a party held at Nantclwyd Hall in Denbighshire, although that party actually took place in December. Nor was Wingfield the only exponent. At the same time, Harry Gem and Augurio Perera were demonstrating their game of Pelota in Leamington Spa.

Wingfield became vice-president of "The Universal Cookery and Food Association". He founded a culinary society called "Le Cordon Rouge" which was intended to further the development of the science of cookery. He created a new type of bicycle which he called the "The Butterfly" and developed a form of bicycling riding in unison by several riders to the tunes of martial music.

On 22 November 1902 Edward VII made Wingfield a member of the Royal Victorian Order (MVO) for "extraordinary, important and personal services to the Sovereign and the Royal family." and for 32 years of faithful service.

Wingfield patented a New and Improved Court for Playing the Ancient Game of Tennis and began marketing his game in the spring of 1874 selling boxed sets that included rubber balls imported from Germany as well as a net, poles, court markers, rackets and an instruction manual. The sets were available from Wingfield's agent, French and Co. in Pimlico and cost between Pimlico & Belgravia Eye November 2019

Wingfield lived at 112 Belgrave Road, for a time and died aged 78 at 33 St Georges Square.

WESTMINSTER ROYAL AQUARIUM & SUMMER & WINTER GARDEN

Towards the north-west corner of the building is a large reading room, with English and foreign newspapers, magazines, and other current literature. It is also proposed to collect a complete library of books for reference, to provide convenience for letter writing and materials for the delectation of chess players. There is a telegraph office for the despatch and reception of messages – and furnished, and within a division bell of the House of Commons. The Fine Art Exhibition was to be one of the features of the Aquarium. Music would be an important attraction with Mr. Arthur Sullivan as conductor; and a little Theatre is also included in the building.

was one of the most fascinating entertainment venues in late-Victorian London. Visitors to other Aquariums liked to have other amusements as well as observing the fish so the directors were determined to have a botanical display and there would be a Summer and Winter garden.

The original idea was to utilise the vacant space on the north side of Tothill Street by erecting a vast building for public instruction and entertainment was the idea of Wybrow Robertson. The architect was A. Bedborough, and Messrs. Lucas as contractors. The front was to be divided into compartments by columns, thus avoiding monotony, and the bays are ornamented with groups of sculpture,

The Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh, were secured as patrons of the institution Following the opening by The Duke, it was discovered that the building was still in a very unfinished state The tanks contained neither water nor fishes. The two-guinea season ticket holders would feel swindled. The Duke of Edinburgh felt humiliated.

On the inaugural day, Sullivan conducted the orchestra, amplified by the bands of the Scots Fusilier Guards and the Coldstream Guards, in an all-British programme. More cultured weekly concerts would take place on Thursday afternoons. But the concerts, hampered by the cavernous acoustic, were not a success.

Concerts continued at the Aquarium into the 1880s and engaging such eminent singers as Mary Davies, Agnes Larkcom, Edward Lloyd and Barton McGuckin. A Javanese orchestra appeared in 1882, whilst in 1885 the Viennese Ladies Orchestra performed. By the 1890s, the Aquarium was acquiring a risqué reputation, with unaccompanied ladies promenading through the hall in search of male companionship. Emily Turner, a visitor from Montreal, worked .as a salesgirl at the .Aquarium between .October 1891 and January .1892. She met a Major .Hamilton there, who .bought her supper and .took her to entertainments .at the Alhambra Theatre, .promising to set her up in .rooms in Lambeth. The .major disappeared after .providing her with 'gelatin .capsules' for a cough. The pills made her ill, and she . stopped taking them. The . . leftover pills were passed to Scotland Yard, and she was traced by Inspector Jarvis of the Metropolitan police, who identified the missing major as the serial killer, Thomas Neill Cream. The pills were eventually analysed and found to contain only quinine. Turner refused to identify Cream for fear of having to appear at the trial - and have her own respectability questioned.

adding greatly to the artistic effect. The principal entrances were to be on Tothill Street. The great hall, which is 340 feet in length by 160 feet wide. This fine promenade is covered with a roof of glass and iron, the hall being surrounded by palms and exotic trees and shrubs, the whole having the general aspect of a vast conservatory filled with splendid sculpture. Between these artificial groves fountains will play, and on the opposite side of the entrance is the grand orchestra, capable of accommodating 400 performers, with a large organ. Around the hall are the tanks for the marine and fresh water creatures. To supply the 13 tanks lie hid under the floor of the promenade 9 great reservoirs of salt and fresh water. These are built of brickwork on a four-feet bed of concrete, and will hold 700,000 gallons of water.

A licence was granted and on 26th November 1875 the Lord Mayor was given a private viewing of the soon-to-be-opened building, followed by dinner at the Westminster Palace Hotel where he was able to discuss the enterprise with Lord Londesborough, W.H. Smith, Henry Labouchere, Bruce Phillips and Arthur Sullivan.
