BAKEHOUSES.
The Bakehouses of the District have been twice inspected
during the year. The one at 61 Gainsford Street has since
my inspection been closed and will soon be demolished. With
one exception, the Board's regulations have been complied
with. Notice was served on the Occupier of the one referred
to, and the condition since has been much improved. The
one at 14 Railway Approach, is again used as a Bakehouse.
Five of the seven Bakehouses are situated below the
ground level.
HOUSING OF THE WORKING CLASSES ACT, 1890.
Under the above Act, the houses Nos. 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 and
12 Morris Court (New Square), were reported to be unfit for
human habitation. At first the owners thought of having
them demolished, but finally a great deal was done, and they
were made fit for human habitation, without the necessity for
any legal proceedings.
