TOTALS FOR THE PARISH.
Houses pulled down, closed and uninhabitable 588
People displaced (average 4 persons per house) 2352
Loss in Rates, 1894-5 2704 14 10
Loss in Rates in three years, 1892-5 £5196 10 6
Last year's loss to the Parish was £2704 14s. 10d., but as the rates will be much higher this financial year—the loss will be
greater in proportion.
The above list does not include the large number of houses and places of business that are now unoccupied and to let.
May 7th, 1895, A. MILLAR, Vestry Clerk.
