Lincoln's Inn Fields which connect with the Inn by an archway, which it must be confessed might be imsion, firms of which the senior partners may be seen by appointment between 11 and 3 from Tuesdays to Fridays, the remaining days of the week being passed deliciously in country mansions at Goring or Red Hill. Here, too, is the immense home, of grim suggestion, of the Royal College of Surgeons.
But it is to the credit of the dignitaries of Lincoln's Fields that they have made the gardens in the centre a real. people's playground. Here are tennis courts which may be rented for as long as you ple very cheaply. There is a pitch net-ball. And in odd corners urchins from the working-class streets round Covent Garden play primitive cricket.
It is particularly to be noted that the urchins behave very well Flowers, trees and lawns are sacred for them. They never annoy the passers-by, or the folk who come to the garden to rest on its seals. They even modulate their urchin squeals.
It would seem that when we begin to rebuild the broken parts of London, Lincoln's Inn and Fields might well give some ideas to our architects; especially as regards the East End.
