Under the Common Lodging Houses Act, 1853-5, the London County Council has control over all the
Common Lodging Houses situated within the Metropolis— a duty which the newly-formed City and Borough
Councils might, with advantage, have had transferred to them when the London Government Bill, 1899, was
brought in.
31, New Park Road was cancelled as a Common Lodging House on December 29th, 1902.
