LICENSED SLAUGHTER HOUSES.
The whole of the 12 licensed slaughter houses in
the Borough were under regular fortnightly inspection
by the Inspector for offensive trades. At the annual
inspection of slaughter houses in October, 1906, I had
received notices that 12 licenses were to be applied for.
All of them were found to be, as far as your Council's
requirements were concerned, in a satisfactory condition.
Your Council decided to inform the London
County Council that you offered no opposition to the
renewal of any of the licences, and at the Special
Sessions at the London County Council, held in October,
the eleven licences were granted.
The license of the slaughter house at Sheep House
Farm, Old Oak Lane, in the occupation of Mr. James
Wiggins, was opposed by the inspector of the London
County Council. It was eventually granted on the
understanding that it should not again be renewed.
The following is a list of the licensed slaughter
houses in the Borough
