There are 62 premises in Battersea where fish is sold. In 43 of
these places fried fish only is sold, in 15, wet and dried fish only
is sold, and 4 shops sell wet, dried and fried fish.

made 36
Number of premises where four collections
weekly were made 3
Number of premises where three collections
weekly were made 13

At three shops the offal was collected at irregular intervals,
and at one place it was burnt nightly.
