LADY ASTOR FIRES FIRST SALVO IN THE BATTLE OF BEAUCHAMP
1998
Overview
KENSINGTON and Chelsea council is about to have quite a fight on its hands. It has received a complaint about rubbish in one of London's smartest shopping streets - from a member of one of Britain's most famous dynasties. Lady Astor, wife of William [Waldorf Astor], fourth Viscount Astor, has taken up cudgels on behalf of traders in Beauchamp Place in Knightsbridge, and it is hard to imagine her emerging from the fray as anything but the victor. The thoroughfare - home to the San Lorenzo restaurant, designer clothing outlets, jewellers and beauty salons - sometimes looks \"like a wave of drunken hooligans have passed through\", in Lady Astor's witheringly direct words.
