8. Troughs and tables to be provided with castors or wheels.
g. Water supply direct from the rising main.
10. Provision for the workmen's ablution in a suitable position outside the
bakehouse.
11. Provision for the proper storage of coals.
12. Suitable staircase not directly entering the bakehouse.
13. The removal of all gullies and connections with the drains.
In only one instance was any of these requirements not insisted on,
namely at 415, Caledonian Road, where the Council decided, contrary to the
recommendations of the Public Health Committee, that a certificate should be
granted, although the bakehouse was not eight feet in height, chiefly on the
ground that its entire capacity was 2,175 cubic feet.
Islington now possesses good underground bakehouses, which if they are
only kept in a good and cleanly state, should prove a great boon to the workers
employed in them.
It may be stated that your Medical Officer of Health and Chief Inspector
made over 500 (actually 516) visits to these underground bakehouses during the
year.
Other Bakehouses.—Those which are situate above ground are 108 in
number, and were duly inspected by the Inspector (Mr. West), who made 213
visits to them. He found them generally kept in a clean and orderly state.
