Memorial Entrance in Christchurch.

A plan of the memorial entrance it is proposed to erect at Lancaster Park, came before the Board of Control at a meeting held this month, from the architects, Messrs. J. S. and M. J. Guthrie. The plan . provides for a handsome ferro-concrete structure, 100 feet in length, with a depth of twelve feet, and ten stiles, each fitted with collapsible iron gates. Provision is also made for an office, and, surmounting the whole structure, will be an appropriate inscription. The architects stated that the cost of the entrance would probably be from o £I6OO. It was decided that the secretary should write to the Government for permission to commence the work, and that the architects should be instructed to call for tenders. - ■
