The lands westwards of Windsor extending to Prince's Road are known as Parliament fields, the property of the Earl of Sefton. Attempts have been made at different times to obtain the use of them for the public, but the expense of the purchase has always neutralised the effort. In the meantime the public have taken the matter into their own hands. Every measure, severe and gentle, has been adopted to keep out trespassers, but all in vain, until the blockade has been given up in despair. The advance of building will ere long very summarily dispose of the question, the land having been leased to an enterprising builder.
