NEW BLOCK FOR THE OLD BAILEY.—The Lord Mayor of London (Sir Ian Bowater) guiding the foundation stone to its resting place in the new south block of the Central Criminal Court in London. The new block will contain 12 new courts, and include accommodation for judges, barristers, and jurors. There will be a public restaurant and an underground car park. The £7-million scheme is expected to be finished in 1972, and the Corporation of London hopes it will mean a considerable reduction in the time taken to bring persons to trial.
