By order,
Vestry Clerk.
Note.—The Vestry are empowered to open ground, to inspect any drain, or
works connected therewith, that may be covered over. In order to
avoid the annoyance and inconvenience occasioned by opening ground
aud uncovering work, persons executing such work, when it is ready
for covering, should forthwith give notice to that effect to the Medical
Officer of Health, when it will be inspected in due course.
If on inspection of any work ordered by the Yestry it is found that
the order of the Yestry has been departed from in any particular, the
person so offending is liable to a penalty not exceeding Ten pounds; and
if such person, after notice from the Vestry, neglect to amend such
work, the Vestry may amend it at the expense of the person so
offending.
