A gem worth preserving 

it was once described by'the Duchess of Westminster as an absolute gem and one of the reasons why Dodds Lane in Alnwick had thousands of pounds of goverment money‘spent on it to renovate and bring it up the standard it is — today.

It is an old fashioned bow window in the lane which is part of the property used by Radio Rentals who have since left the fF town. “ay «| It is a gem and» e needs to be pro+< ij | tected because it is,, now in the severe. risk category a Recently the local yobs have started to punch holes through- the small glass) panes. They were cut | because blood inside the window tells its, own story. After a local resi-| dent complained. they were repaired but recently another five have” been broken. This is the only window, of its kind, as far as r know in A Inwick. It is well worth preserving. It may be a case for the Civic Society to take on: board. 4
