The report by Venkatesh Krishmoorthy on the Lloyd’s Road Walk (MM, September 1st) had several errors, namely:

1. Semmangudi was to be referred to as Pitamaha and not Pitamaga.

2. It was not G. Subramania Iyer who lived in Lloyd Lane but C. R. Srinivasan who owned the Swadesamitran from the 1940s.

3. The dubash brothers who owned Lalitha Sadan were Ramaswami and Lakshminarayana Iyer and not as reported.

4. The Dewan of Baroda was Sir V.T. Krishnamachari and not Krishnamacharya. His son was the noted Advocate-General V. K. Tiruvenkatachari and not Tirumalacharya.

5. Lalitha Sadan was not just 18,000 sq ft. That was the built up area of the house.
