Sir, We refer to an article (September 5th) entitled "Surveillance TV moves crime around the corner". A CCTV system has recently been erected outside Belvedere College, at the junction of Denmark Street and Temple Street, Dublin 1. During the installation of this system, a beautiful group of hornbeam trees suffered mutilation, presumably to ensure that the cameras would be able to "see".
The only crime they will "see" is the sad remains of these trees. Beautiful view"? We don't think so! Yours, etc.,
Parnell Square,
Dublin 1.
