Premises and Occupations controlled by Bye-Laws or

Houses Let in Lodgings.
The number of houses registered as houses let in lodgings at the
end of 1914 was 405. The registered houses are situated chiefly in the
following streets: —

Broomsleigh Street Kingsford Street

Dunboyne Street Linstead Street

Fleet Road Lowtield Road

The alterations in the Bye-laws governing these premises, rendered
necessary in view of Section 16 of the Housing, Town Planning, etc.,
Act, 11)09, are still the subject of negotiation between the Borough
Council and the Local Government Board.
Offensive Businesses.
None of the businesses to which Section 19 of the Public Health
(London) Act, 1891, relates are carried on in the Borough with the
exception of slaughtering of cattle. There are four slaughterhouses,
situated as follows 40, Englands Lane; 1? and 69, High Street, and
6, Fairfax Mews.
Food.
Milk Supply.
The number of persons registered as purveyors of milk at the end
of 1914 was 73, and the number of premises on which milk is sold was
98. The difference in the two numbers was accounted for by the fact
that some of the milk-sellers occupy more than one shop.
The premises on which milk is sold are as follows:—
Dairies 52
Bakehouses and Confectioners 19
Restaurants and Coffee Shops 10
General Shops 17
Two of the registered milk-sellers do not occupy shops, being
registered in reference to refreshment tents on Hampstead Heath on
Bank Holidays.
