Black-coated barristers and their junior clerks pause on their bustling way through the Temple's narrow courts to watch dungareed workmen clambering over scaffolding sur- rounding many of the mellow stone and brick walls. . They are looking forward to the day when the temple will be re- stored, as nearly as possible, to the condition in which it stood before German bombs wrought widespread damage. Architects' plang call for no lofty buildings to mar the skyline of the Temple, overlooking the Victoria Embankment and standing with its back to,the law courts and busy Fleet, Sfreet. Instead, as before, hundreds "of "lawyers' chambers" blocks of offices which cover much of the four-acre area. London newspapers voiced the feeling of the majority of London- ers at this retention of the old or- der. "The middle and inner tem- ples . . . will retain all the old- world atmosphere, tradition and | serenity of their ancient past," said ° |the Evening News. = Preliminary repair work also is being carried pn to restore Temple Church, the Templars' home with its 12th-century rotunda, last re- stored in the 19th century. Both rotunda and choir-loft were burned out but the 12th-century stone |vault, one of the few parts of the {church which remains in its origi- will be jammed into the four-storey | nal conditicn, was unharmed.
