SIB., .-4t is not easy to express the gratitude that is
due to you for the timely and welcome article in the Spectator of July 23rd on the preservation of the fell above Ullawater, nor the exceeding horror with which one hears of " iron bridges " at Sonning, " tramways " desecrating the valley of the Llugwy, and now the bare possibility of " building sites " on Gowbaiyow Park. God speed the work of the National Trust and of that national benefactor, Miss Octavia Hill, in their noble effort of rescuing, not only for to-day, but for all time, such glorious inheritances as we possess in this England of ours. When " Gowbarrow Park " is safe and the Llugwy Valley protected from threatened disaster there may then be work for the National Trust in this beautiful district of Surrey.—I am, Sir, &c., SELBORNLAN. Haslemere.
