This constructing and altering of Underground Bakehouses has
involved a large amount of work and trouble, which have taken
up the greater part of the year 1903, formal notice having been
given by the Borough Council, at the commencement of 1903, to
all the occupiers of the Requirements of the Council for Underground
Bakehouses by virtue of Section 101 of the Factory and
Workshop Act 1901.
A Register has been compiled during 1903, shewing the states
of the Underground Bakehouses before and after alteration,
together with the cost of such alterations in each individual case—
an interesting record as shewing what the carrying out of the
New Factory and Workshop Act has entailed in respect of Underground
Bakehouses throughout the Borough of Lambeth. The
cost of alteration and construction has varied from a minimum
£10 0s. 0d. to a maximum £850 0s. 0d. (the average being
£80 0s. 0d. per Bakehouse) and it is cause for congratulation
that the whole of the work involved has been carried out without
friction, and without (in any one single instance) the Borough
Council having to resort to the Magistrate for an Order for the
work to be done.
Section 101 (8) of the Factory and Workshop Act 1901 lays
down that, where a dispute arises between the occupier and
