The effort of going up a flight of stairs only to come down another also proved less attractive to many than the prospect of gingerly picking their way along the kerb of a dual carriageway. The growing conservation movement put up a strong fight, too. Looking at the 1963 map, it is not hard to see why, given that sections of pedways appear to slice right through St Paul’s Cathedral.

I didn't catch that. Good eye. Its probably just a coincidental play on words but if its the pedophile St. Paul's Cathedral, in this case, it still fits, even if accidentally :)

Yes, basically if you follow that there has been sexual abuse with choir boys and this is a Cathedral and it has a pedway near it, it's at least a possibility.

I"m thinking the "ped" in Pedway comes from "pedestrian" which is why its probably an accident.
