Lloyd George's Grave

The file consists of letters and papers, 1957-1971, relating mainly to the care of Lloyd George's grave at Llanystumdwy on the banks of the river Dwyfor, but some concern local celebrations of the centenary of Lloyd George's birth in January 1963, a visit to the grave by the Queen and Prince Philip in the following August, and the protest made by the Council for the Preservation of Rural Wales in 1969 against the proposed 'desecration' of the River Dwyfor, a protest with which Frances associated herself. The file includes letters from James Morris (Jan Morris), 1968, and Harold Wilson, 1968.
