Abstract
First paragraph: In a memorandum submitted to the Wolfenden Committee, a government departmental committee commissioned to investigate the law and practice relating to homosexual offences and prostitution in England, Wales and Scotland, Sir John Nott-Bower, K.C.V.O, Commissioner of the Police of the Metropolis provided the committee with a map of London. This representation of London is bounded by Oxford Street to the north and the Kings Road to the south. Its eastern edge is Kensington Park. Its western limit is Westminster bridge and the river Thames. In its detail it is a distribution of familiar urban landmarks such as Hyde Park, Victoria Station, Buckingham Palace, Westminster Abbey, the Houses of Parliament and a complex web of well-known highways and byways. At the same time this London is a less familiar representation.
