LONDON'S WOMAN SURVEYOR
SEES UGLINESS IN HOMES
LONDON, Nov. 5. (/P)—In the eyes
of Miss Irene T. Martin, the only
woman surveyor in England, the
greater part of London is composed
of “atrocious homes and buildings”
put up by Victorian architects. She
sees but little improvement on the
“old Victorian ugliness” in London’s
suburbs. 9
“I wonder sometimes how people,
particularly at night, find their re
spective homes,” she said in an ad
dress before the Soroptimist Club,”
“there are so many, many miles of
houses in London, Manchester, Liver
pool, and other English cities that
are exactly alike.
“When one sees the wretched lit
tle villas they are putting up in the
suburbs, with narrow windows, imita
tion pillars and pompous lych gates,
one begins to realize that we are
making but little improvement on
the old Victorian ugliness.”
