washings had been allowed to flow, causing an accummulation of
foul-smelling water and debris, which in warm weather would be
likely to give rise to a nuisance of an offensive character, and which
in my opinion may have been responsible, to some extent at least,
for the nuisance complained of.
Representations were accordingly made to the firm calling
their attention to the necessity, having regard to the nature of
the business carried on, to exercise greater care in the disposal of
residual and other matters likely to give rise to nuisances. To

carry out the Council's requirements, to obviate the risk of any
further nuisance arising.
In view of this assurance, the Council decided to take no further
action.
No further complaint was received during 1910.
