Notices were also served under the same statute for closing
the following houses:—
6-35, Suffolk Place,
1-6, Webb Court.
1-9, Ferguson's Rents.
135-146, Snowsfields.
And the same have since been demolished. This has been a
splendid clearance of insanitary property. The area had
been repeatedly reported by past and present Officers of
the Parish. Representations were made to the late Metropolitan
Board of Works and the present London County
Council without avail; the Vestry determined after much
consideration to deal with these premises, which they did
with success.
25, 26, 27, 28, 29, Marigold Court.
1, 2, 3, 4, Norfolk Place.
48, 49, 50, Salisbury Street.
Were also closed by order of the Police Magistrate, and
the houses in the first two streets have since been demolished
The Occupier of 134, Snowsfields, a beerhouse, for disobeying
Magistrate's Order by continuing to occupy the
premises was fined £7 5s. and costs.
